Oops -I made a mistake: I meant TungSol JAN-CTL 6L6WGB, not 6SN7WGT (copy-paste error)...

Yes.
I'm sure the 6L6WGB and 5881 are interchangeable in many situations. However, the screen rating for the 6L6WGB is 300V, whereas it's 400V for both screen and anode in the 5881. So, almost the same, but the 5881 might be more appropriate for UL applications.
You're right - and the 6L6WGB screen rating of 300v was determined for "absolute maximum" rating, whereas the 5881 rating of 400v is a "design-center" rating.
Surely the screen rating for the 5881 would exceed 400v if determined as an absolute maximum value.
Thanks for pointing that out!
...and neither is acceptable for the Cary SLI-80 integrated, so I cannot demonstrate them using this amp. I brought them to a tech who measured them using a tube tester.
