From those who have tried them. Quick question. For Bigger Bottom (low end), which tube would you recommend. The Electro Harmonics 6ca7, JJ Kt77, or winged C el34. Only these three tubes. Who thinks what. Thanks

The eh 6ca7 wins that hands down. The question is, what does your hands want to feel. The kt-77 and the el-34 will have a little more 'sag', which might make your hands/head relate to warmth. The 6ca7 is very tight and stiff, like a bigger more powerful 6L6, though the glass enclosure is the same size as a 6L6 , the 6ca7 has a bigger internal design sorta akin to the inner size of a 6550. A 6ca7 has around a 36 to 37 watt capabilty whereas the el-34 has around 25 to 28 watts.
