Progressing through the main story will also unlock three more skills. While going hands-on with an early build, Game Informer learned that after unlocking Cyloop, 11 more skills are unlockable in the main tree. We already know about Cyloop, which creates a blue trail which can extinguish torches, hit or stun multiple enemies and so on. As Sonic explores the Starfall Islands, he’ll unlock new skills and upgrades which provide an edge in different ways. I'd get some Sovtek KT88's and some JJ6922 and live with it for a year or two and see where that takes you.Even with its new open-world (or “open zone”) format, Sega’s Sonic Frontiers still embraces the sense of speed that the Blue Blur is known for. The cheap/quick solution if you don't want to go thru the process. Eventually you will find a combo you will prefer. Once you have gotten a little experience playing with the small tubes you can start considering the power tubes. If you can find EI's, one of my favorite tubes, you will get an excellent/neutral response that is anything but clinical or warmish. In general the JJ's will give you a slightly warmer upper frequencies and fuller bass and the EH's will give you a fuller/deeper bass and extended highs (and in mystuff a sense of a mid-range suck out). What would I do if I were you? Start with just some new production (inexpensive) small tubes and see what they do you your present system. Will the GL KT88's make my system warmer and smoother - maybe smoother, probably not warmer than good 6550's. Answer - Maybe warmer, maybe not smoother. In response to your questions - Will KT88's make my Power 2 sound warmer and smoother. enimic bass, too soft in the highs, and a loss of a sense of dynamics. Note that in a different amp the SOVTEK sonic signature was the same BUT it had a totally different effect on the amps sound, i.e. I subsequently got involved with a different amp which was close to ideal for me with SED 6550's except with my other stuff the upper mids were a bit uneven and after 2 years of playing with different types and different brands I ended up with the SOVTEK's again - same sonic signature I detected using the SFS80. Ultimately I selected the SOVTEK KT88's and used EI small tubes. The former are clearer and more tonally neutral - the latter were a bit softer in the highs and 'fuller' in the upper bass.
With the SED's I liked both the EI6DJ8's and Tesla6922's. I have found both of these tubes very rugged. I boiled down my selection process for power tubes to 1) SED 6550's which produced a tight/deep bass and remained linear thru the mid-range (but it was not 'warm') and slightly soft in the highs, and 2) SOVTEK KT88's which had a warm but fairly clear mid-range, was a little rolled off in the highs and the deep bass was not as 'present'. The Tesla's were more lively in the highs but in the long run, for me tiring. I liked the SED's but the power was halved and I needed the whole 80wts. Big bass and good lower mid-range, but a bit cold and clinical in the highs. It initially came with KT90's and 7308 tubes. I used Sovtek 6550's, GE6550's, SED6550's, Sovtek KT88's, SED KT88's, Tesla E元4's as well as E34L's om this amp. I have used and still own its predecessor, a SFS 80 as well as its larger brother the SFM160 the predecessor to the Power 3. It seems most user comments have focused on extension and clarity in both frequency extremes.Įllyjr, First a caveat - I've never heard a Power Two in my home in my system. Gold Lion re-issues are gaining a good user response - but, unlike many KT88 brands, I'm seeing very few folks comment about 'excessive' mid-range warmth. Very few folks prefer their tone, at least in amps or pre-amps. Sovtek's 6922's are rugged and usually very low noise tubes but they are noted for sterility more than anything elso. The SED is an excellent tube and is often OEM. Present day Svetlana's are not the same tube. IMHO the most rugged and relatively neutral (albeit with a bit of softness in the highs) 6550 is the SED aka Winged C (=C=) made in St Petersberg and in the 90's was sold under the brand Svetlana. Lot of folks like KT88's more but a lot depends on amp design, speaker design, and personal preference, mostly the latter. It would be much more productive if you would post about how you percieve your present sound and how you want to change it.įWIW, 6550's and KT88's just sound different. IMO most folks who post asking about tubes that 'sound' better are really unhappy with some aspect of the sound of thier unit, i,e, too bright, boomy bass, rolled highs, etc.
