I have two V77s. Even with the stock tubes, neither sounded bright and sibilant. 8k is smooth and balanced. After upgrading the tubes (a NOS Telefunken in one, I think a Mullard in the other), the lower midrange cleared up.

At some point, I might ask you what you could do for one or both of them. (thanks so much for the MXL 603 mods, and when the budget allows, I'll get a new MJE-K47H)
