I thought I'd ask polkies before looking to the outside world. I want to upgrade the power tubes on my amps, which currently have 6L6GC Slovak JJ's, and I'm looking for a significant upgrade. Four tubes. Thanks.

    I like the "winged c" SED ( =c= ) Svetlana 6L6GC tubes for recent production examples of that tube type.
    Not the current Svetlanas which are actually made by New Sensor.
    I think they're almost as good as many NOS older production tubes (i.e. RCA, GE, Philips, Sylvania, etc.)
    which usually cost 2-4 x as much per pair or quad.
