I'm running Tung-Sol 12ax7s and (repro) Mullard 6bq5's in them. A significant upgrade from the 40 year old stock NECs that were in them, as near as I can tell through the crappy little speakers. Bigger and more efficient speaks will reveal all.

Now to build some nice wooden cabinets for them. Time for a trip to Yukon Lumber.

I've seen a couple different ways to convert these for Hi-Fi, but not the one that gets rid of the 6267s (thanks by the way). Do you have a schematic or anything? Speaking of the little Magnavox speakers, I once had a set of small ones that used a woofer (8 inch mebee) and a horn for the upper mids / highs. Damn they sounded good. I was using them outside one day and forgot to bring them in, of course it rained that night and ruined the cabs.
