Recently I picked up a set of Groove tube 6550s #5 value for a very rediculously cheap price from a going out of business sale. This place also used to sell Marshalls and said that 6550s would work in a VM if you were in a pinch and had blown tubes because they are in the KT66s family supposedly.
Obviously I wouldn't intend on running my Vintage Modern like this all the time and the smoothness of the KT66s are what I love and intend to keep, but will 4 6550s work in the 2466 Vintage Modern without mods or any adverse effects?
I'm looking at using them in the event of a power tube failure if I am able to use them.
