2001 EI smooth plate Telefunken-copies, $11 each. It's pretty awesome in V1 of my plexi clone. I have to say, I might actually like them more than Mullard short plates.

Slightly more low end rumble/grind, a hair smoother, and maybe a hair quieter.

I like 'em... and for $11, I LOVE them.

That's probably them. What do you think of the tubes? I'd love to hear others' opinions.
