jackiethejokeman...please share your views on the E34L's in your stiletto. (clips too if you have any). I so would like to like that amp (to run in stereo with my Triple), but to me it seems lacking in the "balls" dept. After auditioning quite a few amps next to the triple, it seems a Mark4 or Triaxis/290 is the way for me to go, but if a simple tube swap makes THAT much difference I would give the Trident another shot.
FWIW my Triple is full of JJ glass (ECC803 in V1, hi-gain 83's in the rest, GZ34's, 6L6GC's) and to me it's greatly improved, but I have not had the opportunity to hear a Stiletto with anything other than the stock tubes.
