EL34 TESLA vs MULLARD

Hi,

I'm looking for new (NOS) EL34 in my ATM3 Air Tight (12 EL34 tubes). Did somebody comared MULLARD and TESLA and what is your opinion ?
Mullard are far pricier but do they worth the extra money ? Is the quality gap between Mullard and other contenders (TESLA, SIEMENS, AEG) such that it is fair to pay them such higher price ?

I also heard about Shuguang Treasure and read on their site some think they are better than Mullard ?!

i compared them in a 50 watt amp. i preferred the smoothness and timbre produced by the mullards.

i wonder, however, if there are any el34 brimar. i have some 12 volt brimar tubes which i prefer to mullards, but have yet to find a brimar el34.
