New tubes for Counterpoint SA 100

Are there better tubes to make a Counterpoint SA 100 sound better, especially in the high end.

They should change the sound of the amp and then you can go up the 6dj8 chain from there. Happy Listening.

Improving the high end on SA100 (stock, based on my experience with the SA220) means u need to replace the coupling caps AND swap out the 6DJ8 with a something that has sparkle like the Telsa (new JJ or NOS) Now if your SA100 has been "altavista'ed" thats another story.
