Sorry, I'm new, I keep making a hash of this thing. Anyway, you can have lots of fun investigating different ECC83 types (12AX7s, 5751s, 12AT7s, 12AY7s, etc., etc.) and 6922 types (7308, 6DJ8, etc.) to your heart's content. You have to careful with some choices in sensitive pres and so on, but there are a lot of different 6922 and ECC83 types around anyway. (I collect them.) You can have fun if you feel like it. A Siemens E88CC (bright spank) in the output position would probably sound a lot different from a Bugle Boy 6DJ8 (aaaambientttt).
