Single Ended Triodes (SETs), the ultimate tube lovers dream.

they generally don't have the same specs

For the original Williamson amps, the partridge transformers were well known not to oscillate in a properly built circuit. They were also better built than the average transformer. you get what you pay for in transformers, read what Mike Lefevre said a couple years ago in Vacuum Tube Valley and here on the asylums about the difference between a good output transformer and a bad one. Transformers are not designed for a brand of tubes ever to my knowledge and as Paul Joppa pointed out a while ago, you can make a tube in many ways, it is the way that it meets the tube curve specs that makes it a 6L6 or 6BQ5 etc. not what it looks like.
