especially the Russian tubes which can usually be run WAY over spec...
how they sound this is the question....generally I share Jim Shane's view that many tubes can be significantly run over their voltage ratings if their power ratings are respected...you will get a bit more 2nd harmonic at this point, but generally the bass is more solid at higher voltage/higher impedance operating....
You will have to find out also if AudioNote means 90ma really, when they rate their OPT's, but I think generally they are a bit conservative...
so fine...I think you will like what you hear....
