Maybe so, maybe not so. Don't know. The JJ 2A3, OPERATING as a Type 45 ( 27 mA. biased ) sure played the system well.
Its a VOTT A7-800 with SUPERB wiring from the AC cord of the amplifier, through custom crossovers, with ( 9 AWG ) wiring to EACH 515B woofer's polarity, soldered to the voice coil's terminals. Probably among the one or two best-wired VOTT systems ever done in audio.
All I know is, an ST and Globe 45 wouldn't power my system properly in the mids on piano, etc. I am guessing my rig is maybe only 102 dB, but VERY effectively wired through out.
Mind you, folks, I hear all the good things a 45 does, that sucks people in, but if its deficient in the mids, I won't use it.
Maybe, ( I could imagine ) an EML 45, with a much larger cathode, and the filaments linear spaced, will be OK. The ST and Globes,..... were not !!
