Re Cayin tubes......FWIW

I'm just breaking in a A100T. Out of the box it was just plain bright and edgy - big bass but not too smooth. Decided my poor ears couldn't wait forever for 'break in' so I put in a used octet of SED KT88's and some EI 12AU7's to replace the Chinese tubes (nothing in this amp was Russian). Its clear that tubes play a big role in this amp - even without breaking it sounds quite nice. Don't know why the '50' would be any different.
