I have no experience with any except the Shuguang 2A3C.  I like them almost as much as the cherished pair of RCA Blackplates I have.

I have the Shugang 2a3c and thought they were better than the small sample of NOS I tried.  But can't compare them to EH 2a3 as I have only had EH 300B, and no JJ.  But you might want to head over to the SET asylum on audioasylum.com.  JJ gets very good press there.
