Jolida 502 KT120 tube swapping

Having been told by the nice people at Jolida that the 502 transformer can handle the KT120's "filament requirements", I wondered if any Jolida-philes out there have tried them in either the 502BRC integrated or 502P (what I have) power amp, as they're apparently similar circuits. I'm tired of reading about how groovy the KT120 is and plan to try 'em eventually just to stop the madness and have some extra tubes around.

Upon reading this thread I tried the KT120. Its almost 2 weeks now and I really like it a lot!

Just wondering what pre-amp tubes should I use? I got a recommendation from a Jolida tech that SED (Winged C) is a good option. Have someone tried it?

Thank you for sharing!

Thanks Jedinite24! Will try those combination if I get a chance.

Someone is recommended me to use Telefunkens. Dont know what to expect till I have it.

How did you do guys the biasing? My speakers sensitivity is 86 so I am thinking the Jolida is struggling. I am thinking of making it a little hotter at 60, would it cause some problems?
