Sylvania STR 415's VS. Sylvania STR 387's....

[scottcrud]

Anyone know what the differences between the two are? Know someone who has both for sale, but can only afford to buy one set...

They should be the same tube, if they are in good condition go ahead and buy, they sound the best.

You will find that STR 387 can come with 1 or 2 getters.
The 415 always comes with 2 getters.

From reading around I've understood that they are very similar tubes with the STR387 apparently having a bit more headroom. Will the 387's give me the same aggressive bite as the 415's however? I ask because I can get my hands on either RCA 6L6GC's or Sylvania Yellow labels for a lot cheaper than the 415's are going for right now and was wondering if they were essentially the same thing

Thanks
