I recently put one in my 4xEL91 build combo. (see Tech Discussion thread "4 tube mojo in 8W?". Sounds great in that.

That circuit is a 7-pin tweed Bassman style preamp into four 7-pin EL91/M8082 power tubes. I would say any similar topology circuit would sound great. Try it in a Little Wing amp (on EL34 forum) with 6BM8s.

It sounds as good as a Celestion Blue and can handle 40W so bigger amps can handle it too.

$100 is a steal. I paid $150 new and am happy.

I have a 4x10 with golds and greens and driven it with 6V6/6L6 Fender Champ / 5E3 circuits and EL34 & KT66 Marshall JCM/JMP/JTM circuits. A warm and very detailed / crisp cab.
