What do you guys recommend? Likely will stay away from JJ. I don't want to spend a fortune.

This will be from tube depot.

New production Mullard or new production Tung-Sol

That's about it for the budget I guess. Or JJ. Not feeling JJ.

Edit 2: will buy six so I have an extra pair for the Splawn Supersport. Want them all to match.
 
I have only tried JJ's, Ruby Shuguangs, and Tung Sols (not in a Rockerverg, though), and Tung Sols are the warmest, most compressed, most mid-focused of the bunch. They're nice if you want that.
 
I had Mk I for a while and used Tung Sols in it. I'm not the biggest fan of new production Tung Sols in general, but they worked well with that amp.

Judging by this I may want JJ's.

I like the new Tung sol preamp more than the new production Tung-Sol power tubes. Huh.

If you want headroom and as open, broad sound as 6V6's can give, then yeah. All of the New Sensor offerings look like different takes on the same theme.
