Anyone experiment with different tubes in the Jetta?

Nothing too exciting - just some Preferred Series from The Tube Store - did a full retube with 2 Preferred Series 12AX7's, a Preferred Series 5AR4 and 2 new Tung-Sol 7591A's. Not any real huge change, from what I could tell, aside from the rattle in the stock rectifier going away.

I replaced the stock JJ 12AX7 first with JJ E83CC, then with JJ ECC803S. Of the 3, I like the ECC803S the best. But I keep the gain pretty low most of the time (at most 10:00) and use a lot of boosting and OD, when called for. The ECC803S seem to be able to handle it. Much more open sounding than the other 2 JJ types.
