i think you can use pretty much any octal based pentode in the sli-80. i'm using kt90 in my cary monos. i would suggest you adjust the bias within the range and see which you prefer the most. honestly, the best way to answer your questions is to call cary directly. the customer service there is great when it comes to answering questions.
Q Bias for Cary SLI-80
Cary co. says that proper bias for Cary SLI-80 is about 75mA.
But the allowed range of bias is from 75mA to 100mA.
Which one is the best from your experience?
I would share our information.
And, I heard that I can use EL34 or 6L6 outpu tubes instead of KT88/6550 and when using other output tubes, it should be same bias.
Is it right? If anybody knows it, please share it.
