The 2 x 12AT7s on the MC2301s have the biggest sonic impact & should be matched pairs.

zappadaddy,
It was probably 500 hours or so. About 4 months of operation. If I had it to do over again, I would have switched immediately. Steve makes a very good point. The 12AT7's work hard and make a big difference in the sound. I like NOS Mullards and the Gold Lion re-issues. I'm currently running the GL's. Tom
