In Reply to: Sed wing "C"EL-34 or JJ KT77 for Velleman amp?. posted by rob mac on April 9, 2007 at 15:42:39:
I listened to the stock JJ KT77s in my Rogue Atlas for a few days before one flamed out. I thought it was fantastic. Mark O'Brien (Rogue) told me they have had no problems with the 77 reliability and I believe him. I have not tried the replacement set yet, so I cannot report further on the sound.
I highly recommend the electro-harmonix 6CA7 especially and their EL34EH also. They are both fine sounding tubes imo. The 6CA7 is supposed to be a little more rugged.
I do have the Ruby/Chinese EL34BSTR and it appears to be very well constructed. Not yet sure about the sound though.
I have not auditioned the SED but have heard it is good sounding and well built.
I'm a little surprised you have had such good luck with the E34L. I lost (flame out) two sets of those, one in the the mid '90s and another recently. They were not good sounding to my ears. The newer JJ E34L and LB (blue glass) are of different construction so may be worth a try too. Good luck!Tom
