In my Jadis and Granite amps, the Ei KT90 definitely made the best power and bass. Was probably the most "neutral" as well. And, the 6 years of heavy use on them proved them to be more than reliable.

However, the JJ E34L and KT88 proved far better sonically to my ears. The E34L really got the midrange right, while the KT88 did that, along with adding a good bit more power, along with an intoxicating (to me) midbass bump. I loved the fat sound.

To each, his own...
