I tried a pair of 6V6 in my express and I think I like them better.
Seems to brown the sound out a bit and fattens up the mids. Keep in mind that I haven't tried Siemens El34s yet but I do have a very nice set of brown base Tesla EL34s and they do sound really good but the JJ 6v6s I tried sounded great. Gonna try a pair of NOS RCA Blackplate 6v6gt today. I'll chime back in and give a report.
Anyone else here like 6v6 better than EL34s in Express?

I feel that 6V6 are more jazzy/bluesy, and EL34's are more rock sounding.

Wow, I bet a 4 6v6 would be sick. I find the 6v6 to be every bit as rock sounding as the EL34. Still need to play around with the EL34s. Wanna try some Siemens.
