I have never built a mic preamp, but have built a guitar tube amplifier and several transistor Projects. I first thought about building the gyraf G9 preamp. Then I found this thread about the slow blow mic preamp. I have read all the replies in this thread but I still have some questions.
The suggested slow blow preamp 5687 srpp output stage has no output transformer. Schematic below

According to this article http://www.valvewizard.co.uk/SRPP_Blencowe.pdf by Merlin Blencow. The Srpp stage likes a certain load impedance to perform optimal.
Will the slow blow preamp work with both 600R inputs as well as 10k line inputs?
Will a e182cc give the same performance as a 5687 in this configuration? e182cc has slightly higher mu and transconductance, rp is almost equal.
I have a couple of ecc33 tubes and 12sn7gt so it would be interesting to use these for the first stage/stages.
