RE: comparing the 6L6 sound to EL34

"Tre's comments on voltage and power are valid. A tube running over spec will sound stressed. Also, any differences you hear are within the confines of your amp."

Yes, I'm curious even though the manufacturer info claims their auto bias circuit is such that ANY tube(within specific types) is optimized.
Supposedly, as good as it gets?
I've been assured by the distributor years ago while owning the same brand, but a lower level model,such experimenting is okay.

"All in all, if KT77s sounded best to you, those are the ones to use."
Depending how my hearing/taste adjust to the sound, that may be the outcome. Using tubes as tone controls isn't as costly as cable madness.
The only type that really produced unappealing sonics were 6V6.
