Subject: HD150 Power Tubes, 6L6 or EL34

I am a bit confused about what power tubes I can use in my HD150. I have Sylvania 6L6's in it now. All I want is a clean, warmer sound with more overtones. Can I not use EL34's? Will EL34's cause damage to the amp? Are EL34's and 6L6's somewhat interchangeable? Will new 6L6's give me a radically different sound? Terry advised 6L6 GB/7581A. I can not find these. Will these improve my sound in the way I am seeking? Where are these available(on-line)? Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you again.
