10 Audio Review
Conrad Johnson Premier 15 Series 2 http://www.10audio.com/cj_prem15-2.htm In the 2nd last paragraph, the reviewer talks about replacing the stock tubes with cryo-treated EI "Silver Bullet" 12AX7s and cryo-treated Mullard 6GK5s. Last edited by miles; 07-17-2013 at 04:56 AM. |

CJ used to use the Tungsrams back in the days of the Premier 3 and I don't remember anything good to be said about the tubes. I'd stay away from them.

Thanks to both of you. Right now I'm playing around with a few Bugle Boys and (5751) GE's that I had laying around just to remind me of the "flavors' they impart in the 15. I do like the dynamics and extension of the GE's, but I'm looking for some EI's to try as well. More to come.
Regards, Mark
