Hey, I'm looking to re-tube my kt45 head. I will be replacing the 5ar4 rectifier with a 5U4. So looking for suggestions for the rest of the tubes to bring out the best of the amp?

Dr Z lists as the recommendations for each amp here. The Kt45 is listed under the legacy models. Copied below as well: drzamps.com/support/tube-info/V1: NOS EF86 V2: Sovtek 12AX7LPS V3/4: JJ E34L (matched pair) V5 Solid State plug in or Sovtek 5AR4 Recommended Bias Point: 34mA

I would start with the Doc's recommendations on the power amp section. If you want to make noticeable improvements start with some nice NOS preamp tubes. I would here ztalk.proboards.com/board/18/kt-45 which it looks like you did, and scroll through to see what other owners recommend depending on the music they are playing. You could also do a search in "Ask the Experts" (Myles) for any other suggestions. ztalk.proboards.com/thread/11242/ask-myles-chad-live-playing.
