Tube replacement for Torpedo Le Clean preamp

Hi all,
I wondered if anyone ever tried to replace the stock tube of the Le Clean (which I discovered was a Ruby 12AX7AC5 HG), with another tube.

What kind of tube you suggest for an Hiwatt-like tone, with a warm and broad mid-range?

The more recent Ruby 12AX7AC7 HG+ (7th generation VS. 5th generation)?
Mullard?
ElectroHarmonix?
Philips Miniwatt?
TAD?
Genalex?

I'm not very experienced with tubes (I never replaced one in my tube amps), but the previous owner of the pedal used a Genalex Gold Lion that he removed from the pedal before selling it.

Thank you very much
 
We tried MANY tubes when designing the preamps and settled on that version of 12AX7, but it's cool to try new things of course.


I don't really know what people put in there, it's a matter of taste so it's hard to give a definitive answer.
