I thought at one time that they sounded a bit bright. I don't know if brittle was the descriptor (perhaps it was, it's been a while)
I would like a comparison between the GL and the Mullard reissue however. Especially if they have tried them in a McIntosh but that's not really essential.
I suppose I am looking for a new production tube that does some great things without calling much attention to the upper midrange. I am surprised that the GL in tandem with other tubes is behaving in a totally different way to which I have heard.
The plot thickens...(for me at least!)

I obviously do not know your electronics. Perhaps you should use all B759s where possible.
I have never found the b759 bright. If anything well balanced with a very nice midrange. Like I said, very much like a great!! vintage tube.
Well it's a McIntosh MX110 pre going into an MC240 amp (6L6GC tubes in output) into a pair of Tannoy 15" Monitor Gold speakers. So the horn driven aspect of that kinda means stay on the warm side of the street!
