RE: here is something to think about

hi i have never played with kt 120 or 150 i have done some experiments with the kt90 ,while amazing these newer tubes need extra juice,i would look for transformers that can supply at least 30 % more current than all the total biasing required
finding opt than can do juicy power now a days is v expensive, have you thought about restoring some vintage theater amps like altec 1569,1570,some dukanes,capehearts,rca etc ,even some hifi amps like heath w6,eico hf 60,scott lab series etc,
i have used and rebuild over 15 altec 1569 and done to spec and rebuilt ,they are mack truck reliable and visually,one of the few theater amps that could bitch slap a ls35a
have fun
