I am considering my next purchase from Brent Jesse.
I own the Musical Paradise pre with Ken Rad black glass 6sn7’s and Mundorf Supreme Silver capacitors.
I own the Musical Paradise DAC with the ESS chip set. I currently have a pair of Bugle Boys with Jupiter Copper paper in foil capacitors.
The tube purchase will be for the DAC and I also own a pair of WE 396’s.
The 2 pair that I am considering: E288CC (ultra premium 6DJ8/7308) Siemens, Germany, gold pins; E188CC / 7308 Amperex PQ (ultra premium 6DJ8/7308) or Philips SQ Special Quality type, early LARGE HALO getter type with grey sides, made in Holland, gold pins.
Looking for suggestions since I have never owned Siemens or the Amperex model - I have obviously owned the Bugle Boys.
I think the Western Electrics are warm enough that I am not considering Mullard.
Thanks in advance -
