If someone likes 6L6s in an 8B...

...That tells me they don't care for an 8B. So why not get an amp that's designed for tube rolling? If I'm not mistaken, Roger Modjeski makes a point that some of his designs can take all kinds of output tubes with minor only adjustments. There are others. Bottom line is that if one owns an 8B and likes 6L6 types in it, fine with me. What I do find bothersome is when someone makes a tube rolling recommendation to someone else for an amp like an 8B w/o also stating that circuit operation will be changed by the sub. This is more than just sampling the different flavorings of tube; it's technically a circuit change too.
