Excellent dynamics and dimensionality but they are pretty hard to come by. I would check out Andy at vintage tube service. I moved to a JC2 and couldnt be happier; I dont miss the tubes at all.

Different pre-amps respond differently to identical tubes. My personal best (or anyones for that matter) does not exist in a vacumm. If you want some help in selecting tubes for your pre-amp and have a predisposition for certain qualities or tone, why not just list the particulars and you should get some good feed back. If you just want to see what a lot of folks think about 6922's in general I would suggest that you could get a much broader view from doing some reseach in the archives here and more importantly on the Tubes Forum in AudioAsylum. FWIW.
