Thanks for the response... I don't want to get between you and Catch22 :) so I'll just say its pretty much moot to me without a positive ID. I do know I am not that happy with what I'm hearing, but I have a lot to do besides just tube rolling to get to where I want to be.

I do appreciate your recommendations though, and Catch22's as well. I am looking for warmth with clarity, and, going from other posts as well, am strongly considering a set of the SED EL34 to establish some kind of baseline. If I tried a 6CA7 I'd probably try to dig up a set of the Ei. Especially in the midrange, how do you guys feel the sound of the 6CA7 and/or KT77 differ from the sound of the EL34, in your experience?

BTW, I emailed VASAUDIO, the Cayin distributor, and all he would give is that the EL34 tubes in the A-50T are "OEM". Not much help.
