Use whatever rectifier you would use with 6V6's if you are concerned about running the tubes too hard...straitwire

While I was decades behind on getting away from solid state into tube amps, and only familiar with trying 50s/60s tubes in my amps, I find it quite amazing how you guys are reaching back to tubes made in 1936!. Fun to read, interesting.
Is there a more modern tube most are familiar with that might sound close to a 6F6G tube? Does it kinda sound like a 2A3 or 300B or something? Curious.
