Nice choice!

I have some 12ax7 labelled "Baldwin Organ" that I believe were made by Raytheon......or maybe it was Sylvania?    :dunno:.....and were pulled from organs.

Whatever they are, these tubes  are phenomenal wherever I use them.  Better than all the Teles and other big NOS names I've tried.  Currently doing duty in a Prima Luna Dialogue 2 integrated.   Paired with late 50s Blackburn works factory Mullard CV491 (labelled MWT)  and SED =C= KT88 this amp is liquid, fat with inner detail, and devastatingly musical.  It is performing waaaay beyond my expectations!

Best of luck in securing a pair!    :thumb:
