Yep! I used Gold Lions in my C2300 for 8+ years before they went blah. They didn't burn out or fail. They just lost that pop! Now I'm trying Tung-Sol tubes. Nice thing about tube-rolling, you get to change the sound of your system. I have a new set of Gold Lions in a box ready to go if I decide to change. I don't know how many tubes you'll need for the C2700. Please check the manual for your preamp

Ken,
