Totally valid question, what with all the options available. The 86 was sort of the 'big brother' to the classic Western Electric model 91-A/B amps in the 1930's, and it just seemed interesting.
I have built the circuit before, years ago, first using UTC HA-106 IT's and Peerless S-226-Q OT's, and it was one of the better sounding amps I've heard or made. I later made another one with LS-21's and HA-135's. With good iron, you can't really go wrong with the basic concept.
