Primaluna-TungSol KT120s in triode mode

Anyone have experience with this? I have a Dialogue 2 and enjoy triode mode and wondered how these would sound. I Have used kt88s, el34s (SED winged c) and gold lion KT-77s and am currently diggin' the KT-77s. Prefer open, airy, natural detail. All pre tubes in Dialogue are Mullard and GE NOS. Thank you for your time! Rest of system is: Scout 1.1 with Soundsmith Zephyr, Audio Electronics DJH phono preamp (nos tubes) and MartinLogan EM ESLs.

I've been keeping track of negative reviews of the KT120 tube, and it's now up to 4. Maybe 5. I'm not doing a good job at this, but so far my totals are:

Positive KT120 opinions: 15,628.

Negative: 4. Or maybe 5.

I have driven through a few towns where you stop for gas or roadside surgery and sure enough, the topic always comes around to KT120s. One farmer brought it up when I was negotiating a fair price for his daughter, saying, "huh?"...which is a response I find hard to catagorize. I simply bought some teflon motorcycle chain lube and rode on.
