Tung Sol Reissue 6550's

I have ARC VM-220's which have eight 6550's on each side. ARC ships them with Winged C's, which I ran for 1500 hours. I then changed to reissue Tung Sol's which, in my system showed as well or better in every respect - not just in terms of bass, highs etc., but even more so in terms of the quality of the sound - especially imaging, dimensionality, coherence and clarity. In a number of pieces, I was able to hear an instrument or a voice which was inaudible with the Winged C's. The Tung Sol's were a revelation.
