EL 34 vs. KT 88 ---- What's the difference?


Can someone please tell me or be able to describe the sonic differences in the use of each of these tubes?

Is one tube better than the other...or does one tube provide more warmth and tube-like qualities than the other?

Does anyone know why a tube amp designer would select one over the other?

Thanks.

PrimaLuna amps will accept EL34 or KT88. I tried both driving my Klipsch RF7's and agree with Jeffreybehr on the sound difference between the two.
