Rogue Cronus with KT-90 tubes


Has anyone tried these tubes and how do they sound compared with EL-34?
Thanks.

I still have the stock Svetlana EL-34's in my Cronus. HOWEVER.....for me, a significant improvement in the all-around musicality of the amp came from swapping out the original five "small tubes" for a set of NOS RCA and GE tubes hand picked by Mark and Nick at Rogue Audio. For less than $200, I feel like I really upgraded my amp, and made my Vandersteens sound even sweeter. Just a thought......Good Luck, and Happy Listening !!
I have recently replaced the original Svetlana EL-34's with a matched quad of Genelex Gold Lion KT-77's, following the advice of Mark O'Brien and many "tube gurus" out there in audioland. The result are sublime. As much as I loved the Cronus before, I've brought it up to a whole new level. See my post on this thread from 11/20/09.
Happy Listening !
