6550 or KT88 ?



I've got CJ Premier 12's and have read a lot about the SED Winged Svetlana KT88.

Is it really going to be less "HiFi" and more musical if I substitute my existing Svetlana 6550C with the SED KT88?

Ole, the Penta KT88SC solid-plate version is getting lots of good comments on the Tube Asylum-- http://www.audioasylum.com/scripts/tv.pl?forum=tubes&s=U --you might Search and read a bunch. Those '88s are available here http://www.pentalaboratories.com/product.asp?dept%5Fid=5020&pf%5Fid=KT88SC+SHUGUANG but be sure you get the no-holes-in-plate versions.

I just bought a pair of ASL Hurricanes and that's what I'll be using.
