Yes, I would say that is a fair description. The difference to my ears is fairly subtle, but all are an improvement in background 'blackness' over the OEM tubes, with the Tung-Sol & GL a step better to the EH in the C22.

It's always subjective, but I've been really happy with the Mullard reissue CV4004. Good warmth and clarity to my ears.

In my Lamm gear I like:
Westinghouse JAN CWL 12AX7, Yellow writing, 1960s Philips MiniWatt Holland 12AX7=ECC83 , 1960s The '60s-70s Telefunkens I've tried have a nice clairity, solid mid-range, decent highs but tend to be a touch thin in the mid-bass and lower. |

If they have any JAN tubes, I've found them to be very quiet for preamps stages.
