Someone give me the quick and dirty on the sonic differences between: EL 34, 6550, KT-88/90. My current mono blocks are stocked with el-34's heard thru Maggie 3.6. Thanks
Genelec KT-88s are the best but $$$$$! Don't neglect to find better input tubes (e.g.6sn7s or whatever your amps use) - the new production ones are considered inferior to the old by a lot of tube rollers....
Not too many EL34 amps will have enough to drive big maggies? Even 4 tubes per channel (80-100 watts) is barely enough to get them going. Using a basic 40wpc EL34 amp probably will lack bass. I would suggest biamp or use a sub....
