RE: The 6su7gty also has a plate resistance of 44K

Anything is possible.

I did conduct a few preliminary listening tests between the 6SU7GTY Circa 1959 and the 6188 Circa 1972. Here are my findings:

1. The 6188 puts out greater DB on the same songs/passage compared to the 6SU7GTY by 2.5 DB - 3 DB.
2. The 6SU7GTY had a slightly "thicker" sound - in the mids especially.
3. The 6188 were very slightly more transparent, but thinner sounding in the mids. The highs seemed more extended.
4. The two tube types sounded very similar!
