a question for the valve gurus

ok - here's the deal...i got myself an aria td-1 valve overdrive pedal and it came with a no-brand chinese 12ax7, so as i had couple of valves lying around i thought it'd try them and see what it sounded like.

firstly i tried a fender (sovtek) 12ax7...sounds good...valve lights up nicely...then i tried a lower gain EHX 12at7...and it sounded different, BUT the valve didn't light up at all.


why should the lower gain valve not be shining with the light of the heaters ?


any ideas ?
