i don't know how much of a review someone could give.....Rectifier tubes either work, or they don't. (to quote Myles)

I have one ... it's up there with the Mullard as far as construction and quality, much cheaper though. Great improvement over the Sovtek or JJ rectos. My Route 66 tightened up a lot with either Valvo or the Mullard.

My Route 66 tightened up a lot with either Valvo or the Mullard. Thanks for the help. It was between the Jan/Phillips or the Valvo. The guy at KCA NOS told me that the Jan/Phillips had more sag and less clean headroom than the Valvo. Since clean headroom is what I want, I opted for the Valvo. KCA was very helpful and answered all of my questions very fast

Mike at KCA NOS would never steer you wrong! He is a great guy, and very informative as well!
