OEI output transformer, EL34 or 5881? which has a better sound?

Mitch	OEI output transformer, EL34 or 5881? which has a better sound? Speedracer, I wanted to ask about the OT you sell. Can you use 5881s with as good results is sound as if you used the EL34s on the OT? I have been considering a OEI ot for my SLO clone but I have to use the 5881s in the amp I want to install the OEI in as the PT in the amp cant handle the heater current of EL34s and I dont have any more room to install an additional filiment trannie in the amp. Thanks and Cheers... Mitch
