KT120 tubes in AudioResearch ref 300 MK2



Hi

I own the ARC ref 300mk2 mono-amps and i wonder if someone have any experience with replacing the powertubes for the Tungsol KT120.

More specific: Is there enough room because the KT 120 is a bit bigger?
Does it gives problem with the heat?
Is it necessary to replace the filament-transformer,
because the Tungsol needs more current?

What is the soundexperience?

The best thing you can do for those amps is turn them into CL-150's. Triode connect the outputs. It will sound better and make it more reliable.
