My question here is to provide the best range of sound and the best bass responds I can get to my FRD speaker--so---I am reading a auction on E-bay to the effect that the tube 6eu7 has a deeper or wider bass behavior in the tube amp when used as the pre-amp tube and that the 12ax7 is just more popular and cheaper --then I find an old Wollensak amp using 2 of the 6eu7's in the preamp function---yet some of the finest vintage amps are 12ax7's and EL84's---your thoughts gentlemen-----Jim
