I prefer the EL-34 over the KT-88. In regard to the 6922 as opposed to the 12AU7, although they are two entirely different animals; I like them both. My impression of the 6922 is of a very neutral, high definition tube that can create a 3D soundstage; while a 12AU7 is warm and beautiful, it sounds best with female jazz vocalists.
Your thoughts on these different tubes?..
I had tubes in the past from VAC, BAT, CJ and others...but have been in the world of solid state as of late.
Thinking about doing a modest system based on a tube integrated and would appreciate hearing your experience with the following tubes:
Output tubes: KT88 vs 6550C vs EL34 vs KT90
Input/Driver tubes:6922 vs. 12AU7 vs. 12AX7 vs. 6SN7
Thanks for any input...and have good holidays..
