IMHO, The real issue with these cheap 6J1 buffer preamp is its low operating voltage, + and - 12V * 2 or 48 volts absolute B+. By making it 12.00 V instead of 13.xx V (from the cheap wall plug-in), you likely be going the wrong direction and make things worst. I would put the new power supply money toward a line amp with a real high voltage supply.
