"It is all about the honest reproduction. Turning them down makes it easier to build an effects box...but waaaiiiit, you already said that... :)"
DT667 never said that "reducing standing bias currents" creates an effects box.
People might want to associate a schematic or measurement data with how an amplifier will sound subjectively.
Without listening to a tube amplifier on high efficiency transducers of good quality, a complete understanding of circuit performance is not possible.
Realism in audio will mean a different subjective result to each person who builds a tube audio amplifier.
This goes beyond the technical aspects of circuit design and goes into the realms of audiophile psychology.
The 6V6 family are very popular tubes and readily available tubes - certainly considered REAL tubes by those that use them.
