So anyone out there use a CTH?  Any suggestions for decent tubes without costing an arm and a leg?

I use a Jan 6922, various 12au7 and RCA 6FQ7 (clear top) as per sachu's recommendation.  the rca clear tops are a good place to start imo...
also there's some cth tube info on hf http://www.head-fi.org/t/417322/cavalli-compact-tube-hybrid-cth-tube-tweak-thread

Tim,
Try the RCA Cleartop.

They are affordable and sound great.

PM me if you want some insider info....
