I did not care for the BT CV181's in the Dude. Found them to be way too soft and laid back. Am using Sylvania GTA's or GTB's and they are much more to my liking.
Dude's 6SN7 replacements with Chinese CV-181/6SN7
After about 3 months of breaking in the Dude, I think it's time to do some 6SN7 tubes rolling. I know this topic has been discussed before but I missed the thread.
Instead of the NOS 6SN7 tubes, I am thinking of trying the Shuguang CV-181Z or the Sophia 6SN7. Both are very similar prices at about $200/pair.
Have anybody tried any of them before with your Dude preamp?
Any opinions or suggestions are welcome.
