Apologies to the OP. I think you will have those KT120 tubes out toot suite. The EI KT90 is THE finest high power output tube I have listened to in an H-K Citation II, especially triode wired. An electroharmonix KT90 is another animal that is close but not quite there.
I have plans to build a second Citation with Gold Lion Kt88 outputs. I had a chance to hear them in several configurations and they are defiantly worth the effort.
Remember VTL (Dave Manly) had that tube built to use in his amplifiers.

Check with VTL if KT120 will work. Nt - viridian 09:12:16 01/12/17 (6)

VTL has yet to implement that tube in their amps - E-Stat 10:43:16 01/12/17 (4)
