Let's not forget about the "Holy Grail" of rectifier tubes...the Western Electric 274B.

These go for between 1000-1300 usually and are essentially a 5U4G. Somehow, the consensus is that this tube delivers only the 'finest' and 'best sounding' B+ of any rectifier!! From an engineering standpoint, I don't understand it at all. It's just a tube rectifier to me.
