6146 was RCA's failure to understand the market. They thought it could compare and hold i-ts own against the KT-88/6550 but it was too expensive for the mass marketers, Same with the 7027.
IIRC, the Greatfull Dead, towards the end, used amps running the big Dyna Transformers (a-440/441, the stuff for the Mk VI's) and using the 6146 Good luck
