How two 6550 tubes compare


Can anyone define the sonic differences between the Tung Sol 6550 reissues and the Svetlana 6550 Winged C's, or if your just familiar with one of the two, what are it's sonic attributes?

In advance thanks.

In my system the SED winged C 6650 was much smoother, perhaps almost too smooth and subdued sounding compared to the SED KT88 which was much more open and dynamic. Havent heard the TS. However, if you have been using a 6650 and are ready to really open things up in comparison, switch to the SED KT88.
