Victoria Amps What Tubes ?

I have a Vicky Victorlux 2x10 and a Vicky 35310, I currently has TAD's and sounds great, will RCA-GE-ect. vintage tubes make a REAL big difference.
Any thoughts. Thanks

Trust me instead of getting 10 different opinions, I suggest you call Mark directly at Victoria for the definitive answer!

Mark loaded mine with all NOS GE tubes when I bought it from him many years ago. Still sounds amazing.

Mark said to use the TAD's and that what I have, but I was just wondering about some vintage tubes to see if any vicky lovers have tried them.

old USA tubes, are a little sweeter, less volume and smoother, less fizzy than newer tubes.
