Old JJ kt88 versus new ShuguangKT88SC?


I have one audio aero capitole amplifier- 50watts classe A, 4 6sn7, 4 EL34 and 4 kt88, The 6sn7 are sylvanias drivers tubes, recently I changed the old JJ el34( I think used more than 1500 hours) for JJEL34( blue) and the sound became fantastic, like the old JJ el34 the JJ KT88 were old ( more than 1500hours)so I changed for shuguang KT88SC( new) than the mediuns became not natural, and the hihgs not as clear as the old JJKT88, and the soundstage congested, I would like to know if I need more hours of burning to shuguang KT88S . I am waiting the new reissued gold lion KT88 to try in the capitole. Thanks for hellp me.
