need help on tube 6973
I think Bill Bickers at Jukebox Friday Nite prefers the 6CZ5, but also uses
a 6CW5.... for 6973 subs. I have both subs in stock,
6CZ5@ $6.50 ea, 6CW5 @ $5 ea. new in box.

thanks to all who replied on the earlier thread, but we sort of got off
the
original topic, so let me just cut to the quick:
what tube, in your opinion is the best substitute for the 6973 within
these
two scenarios:
1. a pin compatible drop-in replacement that would only require rebiasing
2. the closest tube electrically that uses a 9-pin socket, that would
require an adapter to shift the pinout around, but is the best performance
and electrical match
several tubes were mentioned earlier, but I am still not sure what to go
with, so which 2 tubes are your favorites for the situations above?
thanks!
