Hi Guys, I have a much loved 20 year old Transcendent Sound T8-LN OTL amp. Factory built unit and the manufacturer (Bruce Rozenblit) originally supplied the unit with Svetlana EL-509s. I want to obtain some addl. 509s for backup. I see a ton of Ebay EL509s shown as Svetlana 6P45S. Anyone know if these are identical replacements for the original Svets? Same specs on all parameters? I understand that there are various tubes marketed as "equivalents" of the orignal 509s but they are not identical in specs and have less output. Aside from the fact that I want the original power for my Ref3A DeCapo speakers, I don't want to mix tubes with mismatched specs in the amp. That seems like a prescription for problems. Years ago I tried to get clarity on the transcendent site, but no luck. {EDIT} http://www.ne.jp/asahi/evo/amp/device/el509.pdf
