RE: New reissue KT88 versus vintage Genelex/Gec KT88

Mike:
I have about 300 hours on the tubes. Not to beat a dead horse to death............BUT---Rogue Audio recommends biasing KT88 in the Stereo 90 at 40ma per tube. Are you really serious about biasing at 80ma per tube? That is twice the recommended bias. Won't that hurt something/someone? I don't know what voltage is on the plates,but I do seem to be able to run 6L6GC no problem. Is it possible that your 80ma reco is not OK for all amps?
