which rectifier tube should I use?

203.83.110.226

I'm assembling a 6V6 single-ended amp drawing about 60ma each channel, using 6J7 as driver. The original schematics stipulate using 6X5, for each channel I guess. I have on hand 6X4, 6Z4, 6CA4, and those higher current types 5R4, 5U4, 5AR4, and CV378 but not 6X5. I suppose all of them are electrifically fit though those high current types are probably overkill. Andbody can share the experience on these rectifiers? Thanks.
