Yes indeed. It did not provide less gain in the sense of less volume so I stick with my 'more drive' EI comment. Nonetheless, I am fully aware that these are sighted A/B dems and the amp needs to cool (and more since I don't want to switch it on and off all the time) and probably fairly meaningless.
I think I can say that more expensive good valves are better than cheaper less good ones. Whether they're worth the money is for each to decide. I can also say that a well restored ST20 is very capable of showing any system change, including the valves inside it.
