There's Sylvania and Philips 6DJ8 that you can try. They seem to be reasonably priced too!

Several weeks ago I acquired an Eastern Electric Minimax CD player that uses 6922/6DJ8 family of tubes in the output stage. I've run Sylvania and Philips Holland and I prefer the Philips. I haven't had much time to be honest and I even experimented with OPAMP rolling which produced the best result. I plan on doing more listening tests over this weekend. Hopefully we can share notes!
