I had a pair of JJ EL34's in my rectoverb while I was waiting for my new JJ 6L6's to arrive and I thought I really liked it, but I think I may like it even more now that I have a fresh set of 6L6's. It seems to have opened up and with the 10 band EQ in the loop and my clean boost in front it doesn't really sound or feel any looser?
What are you Rectoverb owners (or Single Recto owners) using and why?
 
I actually went back to the El34's. Something was missing from my tone with the 6l6's. it seemed muddier. At lower volumes El34's seem to respond better than 6L6's do and I'm using this in my house most of the time.
 
I've gone back and forth on all my boogies, including my ROV..the difference is minimal, and in a band setting the difference is nonexistant unless you had bad tubes to begin with.
