Yeah me too. . . my SEWE300B has Cryotone 300B tubes and Sophia Electric Aqua, but the rest are currently NOS:

Amperex 6085
"English" 75C1
RCA 6SN7 with converter bases

And I have an Amperex Bugle Boy 12AU7 in my ZROCK2

In my headphone system I have another Amperex Bugle Boy 12AU7 within it, and in the Bottlehead Paramour preamplifier there a GE 0D3 and two Sylvania 5963 (both "red-tipped" from Steve).

My audio/video system in the living room though has all Cryotone tubes except for two Sophia Electric rectifiers.

Getting a set of Linlai KT88 tubes shortly. Also have a set of JJ ECC802s and Gold Lion 12AU7 tubes. But that’s kind of it….
