This is in your PSE? When I got mine I tried for a while mixing power tubes but without much luck. I seemed to gravitate back to quads. As I recall, trying to add clarity with low powered tubes to the punch of higher powered tubes yield less punch but no discernible increase in clarity. Now el84 with 6l6ga’s. Theres an interesting combo. Lower power for both. May try some combos like that. 6v6 -6f6 maybe. I have lots of pairs.

Is yours tube rectified? You mention the 5y3. Mine is SS. Rect is for IIPS and I have not hear a difference as long as the tube is direct heated. Running a Tubestore 274b now because I like the big st shape.
