A couple of the Soviet era new old stock Russian versions of the 6SL7 sound good too, and fairly cheap compared to new manufacture. The 6N9S and the 6H9C.
I have a few Reflektor 6H9C's that I like. I plan on using one in an amp I'm gathering parts for.

I got my four 1959 RCA 6SL7GT black plates for a benjamin plus shipping. Could not be happier. Much better than the supplied Tung Sol's.
 
An unbuilt Bell and Howell (Heathkit) AAD-210 quad amplifier, in July, which is now together and working and parts related to same to replace some that had needed it after being stored for about 50 years.

This is pretty much the equivalent of a Heathkit AA-2010 with minor differences but made by Heathkit for B&H schools electronics courses back in the seventies.

Documentation of construction is on QuadraphonicQuad.

Tomorrow I'm going to Chicago to pick up a pair of Quad ESL-988s in not quite working right condition. The seller says his friend has a pair of 63s in similar condition that he wants to sell. Maybe I'll buy those next week!

The ESL-63s I rebuilt two years ago are in daily use and still working perfectly.

I’m gonna call this audio related because I’m only ever going to use it on audio equipment.

A new Variac came in the mail today; I realized after I picked up the Fisher a few weeks back that I didn’t have one any more. Also realized I’ve never owned a new one before, just some ancient beaters. Feel all fancy with the digital voltage readout lol.
