I don't have the M-180s but the Stereo 90. A very similar amp. I have tried many different power tubes in the amp including the Tung Sol KT120s. I do not care for the KT120 in my Rogue. I think the Preferred Series KT88 (I have the PentaLabs KT88SC which supposedly the same tube) is a much better sounding tube. So are the EI KT90 and the Gold Lion KT66. Probably the GL KT88 as well.
You would not be "downgrading" going to these tubes. Can't believe the Tung Sol KT120 is standard with all Rogue amps these days.
