The PT is quite small in comparison to the KT88 amp and OPTs look to be of similar size. I doubt the design is geared toward trying to maximize power output. Not really Dennis’s thing.
Interesting. I have the KT88 firebotle and I really prefer the 6v6 types in my amp over the KT88. In fact I like most other tubes in it than the KT88. Good eye spotting the smaller PT. Wonder if it is voiced for those tubes running at lower power. Interesting idea.
