Hi EfeTe,
Thank you.
I have had KT88s in the past in both a Primaluna Prologue Two and also a Dialogue Two. Haven't yet tried a set of them in this new set up. Overall I always liked the KT88 sound, though from memory, I think the KT-120 is just a little better version of the KT88. Similar money too. If you have an amp that will accept both, the next time you re-tube I would try the KT-120 and see what you think. The KT-120 will offer a bit more power and cleaner more linear sound too. Bass will offer more clarity and cleaner bottom edges. Not that KT88s are "squishy" just that KT-120s are that much clearer and a little less "tubey".
