Anyone using KT88's in D series ARC gear?

Hi, I just bought an original ARC D-70 (which is currently down.:0(
Anyhow, I own a matched quad set of Golden Aero KT88's that are like new.
Is it possible to substitute these for the 6550's in the D-70?
Anyone running KT88's instead of 6550's in their older ARC gear?
Also, i am having a problem with my speaker cables as they are terminated with spades and won't fit the original ARC speaker terminals, any suggestions?

Hello Davey,
For starters, Gold Lion KT88s do not fit inside the ARC D-70 tube cage, the tube bottles are too fat.
Vampire makes spades sized for barrier strips. I believe the part # is Bar-8.

Good luck
