[QUOTE="metalsoup, post: 136959, member: 3188"] FWIW, the 20th Anniversary XTC was designed with 6L6s in mind. Here's a quote about the 20th XTCA from Jorg at Bogner that I happened across on another gear forum: "The amp was designed with the 6L6 compliments the circuit better, the sozo and dijon caps have more girth and midrange, EL34 will pronounce that more. Some people just need to have EL34's no matter what, I had both, people converting liking it better and others converting back, guess personal taste, we prefer the 6L6's." Like so many things, the bottom line would seem to be [i]personal taste.[/i] And you can't really know how you'll like something till you try it yourself. Nothing beats an A/B comparison! If you've got a power section that lets you swap tubes, well, that's all you have to do to answer your question! [/QUOTE]
