Zen select input tube bias - Anyone mod for LED?

I'm just curious if anyone has tried using an LED bias for the input tube on their amplifier and if it was a worthwhile mod.

You can try 2 hlmp 6000 in series same as what I did with the zkit/zstage (12au7). I didn't like the sound though.

Just modded my amp.  Now one switch setting is the original high bias level and the other is led biased.  There is a very clear improvement accross the board with the led bias.  I have had this amp for 10 years and I still love it.  This is my first major mod to the amp.  If I try anything else I may put a ccs on the output tubes.  

Here is some more info on led bias.
