A couple of quick points.
1) Those 330K Ohm Rg1 resistors on the output tube grids is something you'd need to watch. They may need to be lowered in order to use other tubes (cetainly would have to be lower for 6550). If you try to go fixed bias then they are even too high for EL34 (Max Rg1 values are always x 2 or x 2.5 lower for fixed bias than for cathode bias). I suggest you stay away from fixed bias in this case.
2) Gain can easily be adjusted. The gain of this circuit is set by those 470 Ohm resistors in the diffamp cathodes. Lower resistance means less degeneration of gm which in turn means higher gain. (gain of a cascode is approximately equal to the gm of the lower tube x RL at the top tube anode).
Cheers,
Ian
