Sorry, Drew, I was going for tongue-in-cheek.  I did get the sarcasm but wanted to say Siberia is a good place to get some stuff from.

To whoever is the OP, I'm very sorry for the skids.

I got my Mullard NOS 4024CV today. They were running a special at TubeDepot. I have to say that right out of the box I liked it much better than the JJ gold pin. The sound was more defined. More clarity as well. The JJ sounded good to me until I tried the Mullard. It seems that all frequencies sound better. The Bass is more forward if than makes any sense. I think the JJ is a little edgy as well. Perhaps the JJ is meant for guitar amp applications. Thanks so much for spurring me on to try new tubes. I am in you debt.

I like Grangers burnout with posi rear end. I miss those days. Maybe when I'm as old as Granger. I'll get a C7 Corvette. Lay some rubber.....

Glad to hear the Mullard worked out. I am enjoying the Telefunken, pretty similar experience. will try the Mullard soon. I also converted my silly and expensive liquid polymer cables to single ended. This stuff is a real b(&) to work with and really didn't do anything noticeable.

maybe we should convince Randy to roll 2a3's next :)

The vet is nice, but I still want a Porsche Carrera S. Can't really burn out in an all wheel drive though . . .
