Old tubes sound best. For what I use in headphone Amps and my lampi dac there is much more nos they current production. Even the current production are replica tubes.
And from 60 back is where the nos come from. While I have some new production it's not many and all are replica tubes expensive stuff. Just enough tubes to achieve the soundanalog stuff.
