Carvin X-30 amp--making it sound better

Myles,

I've been pouring over your web site and several of the links from your site in search of a good approach to making my Carvin X-30 come alive. It still has all of the origninal tubes. I'm hoping you might be willing to comment on a couple of possible approaches:

1) 12AX7 EHs (Electro Harmonix) preamp tubes (one might be phase splitter--not sure, since I can't find the schematic) and a pair of THD Yellow Jackets to replace the 6L6GC power tubes.

2) Just go with Groove Tube replacements, possibly in conjunction with a THD Hot Plate.

3) Throw the amp out and get a POD--kidding! :-)

Thank you for all of the wonderful info that you've been making available, btw.

--Blake
