KT150 to KT120..or KT120 to KT150


Has anyone here gone from using KT120's in their amp to KT150's and preferred the KT150 tube...conversely has anyone gone from KT150's in their amp to KT120's and preferred the KT120's?

@decooney, I purchased a set of Silver 88 mono-blocks back in 2014. When I ordered them, I paid extra for the KT150 customizations. I had always been running KT150s, but recently tried some KT120s. I am finding less high frequency extension with the KT120, and less midrange lusciousness as well. I run the KT150 at 50ma, and the KT120 at 44ma.  Maybe I have not given the KT120 long enough, but they came out of a friend's CAT amps, so I think they have been run for at least a couple hundred hours. I am curious as to what bias you are running the KT120s in your Quicksilver amps.

Thanks

@decooney I just saw your follow-up a year and a half late. I did end up trying a different matched quad of KT120s in my Silver 88s, and they sound very good.
