You can buy ready made adapters which convert a WE 420A / 5755 to a 12AX7. You can also buy 2 for 1 adapters, which convert a pair of 6SF5-GT to a single 12AX7, the 6SF5-GT has 110% of the gain of a 12AX7. Finally you can buy adapters, which convert a 5687 to a 12AX7. The 5687 was designed by TungSol in 1952 to be a superior audio tube. Audio Note's current DAC's all use the 5687.
With quality 12AX7 getting scarce and loads of counterfeits around the WE 420A maybe a better alternative to the 12AX7.
