The favorite tube was the tung sol 6550 followed by the genalex/mov kt-88. Best buy was the svetlana 6550c.I can tell you that unless you want to shell out big $ for the top off the line kt-88s the svetlana 6550c is the way to go. If I was going to shell out the dough I would still stick with the 6550 tung sol. The ge 6550 has great bass and good midrange...little rolled off up top.
I recently went through this process. The svet. 6550 c is now know as the S.E.D. 6550 "wing c"...the tube has a "c" with a wing emblem around it.
If you find that you get recommendations on the EH kt-88, I have two pairs for sale with about 100 hrs.
