I owned a 275 and was very underwhelmed by it.  It sounded plain and very ordinary.  Absolutely nothing special at all.

I have not used the Rogue, but did have the Mac.  It definitely benefits from upgraded tubes, especially the small signal tubes.  I also used the GL KT88s which made a smaller but noticeable improvement.  
 

I have since moved to Pass 30.8 and like others have mentioned, it makes the Mac sound a bit muddy.  Definitely hearing more of the music without sacrificing musicality.
