Intermittent Microphonic Tube/300B Choice

Tubes Asylum

Questions about tubes and gear that glows. FAQ

Hi All,

I got my Wavelength 300B integrated up and running thanks to Scott Frankland's shop, and it sounds great, except that I seem to have an intermittently microphonic WE 300B. Some days it's dead quiet, others...not so much. Is that really possible to have one intermittently microphonic?

So, if I need to replace them my realistic choices are the EH Gold, or the Genalex. Price difference is about $100, so no big deal. Any rec's on either of those, or any others that are "affordable". No way can I get another pair of WE's, so substitutes will have to do for this amp.
