Are Tung Sol EL34 tubes good?
The Tung-Sol EL34B power tubes sound bright with great high-end tone. This is an excellent option for the new production tubes with high C/P value. You can hear the high density music from these tubes comparable to the quality of Tesla/Sovtek vintage EL34 tubes with much lower price. Highly recomended!
What is the difference between EL34 and EL34B?

The ways that tubes distort when pushed to the edge are much more musical than the artificial sounds that come from transistor amplifiers when overdriven.
