    Why do you want change that tube in new amp ?
    If you really have to change it, you can put there any 12AX7 or ECC83.
    There are many producers like JJ or EH and other, but it will be very hard to hear a different in your amp. ( to many opamps inside ;) )

    It will make very little difference to your sound to be honest. Also, the 12AX7 is a very good pre amp valve. Also i think the AVTs have their preamp valves soldered in place, which will make it a bit harder to change, im open to correction on this!

    I think you would be better off trying out a few pre amp pedals, as they will change your tone a lot more than changing your pre amp valve

    I would also suggest that on an AVT the difference in sound would be minute.
