RE: Bryston 2.5B-3 is a winner

Hi Jerry,

Yes, I put KT120's in the Stereo 90 after ordering them 'special' from Rogue. You see, the Stereo 90 was not mechanically designed to fit the taller KT120's with the amp cover on. The Stereo 90 was designed before the KT120 tubes became popular and readily available. Some KT120s are taller than others simply due to manufacturing tolerances so Rogue hand picked a quad of 'short' KT120's for my Stereo 90. And yes, they sound wonderful ! I also have KT120's in my Rogue Cronus Magnum integrated.

As for KT88 tubes, the last time I had those were in the ARC VT100mkII a long time ago but I preferred the 'clarity' of the 6550 which is what ARC shipped with the amp.

Hope you're doing well, too. Looking forward to your 2.5B-3 review.

...Abe
