Steve, some good suggestions for alternate tubes to look at. Since I already have the 6883B tubes, I will likely proceed with this project. After researching this tube, I see no reason why it should not work well as an audio tube. It looks pretty linear, and as long as the screen voltage limitations are adhered to, see no reason why it should not work well. I also think the "dark heater" feature should make the tubes last longer. It is a very stout tube, and appears a lot more rugged than 6550 tubes (except for the screens!). I also prefer the pins on the 6883B compared to the sweep tubes.
This may work out great, or it may go south, but for now, willing to give this a go and see how it works out.
