I see. I have a 6B4G push-pull amp and an EL84 push-pull amp, both using 6DJ8 as input tubes. Although they sound different they both sound great. I could not put one before the other. The first one gives about 7,5w and the other one about 12w. Same designer of both of them.
(Both are loudspeaker amps).
The EL84 kind of has a reputation for being sweeter toned than most pentodes or tetrodes. A well designed EL84 amp can certainly sound as nice as an SET like your 6B4G. Both of your amps provide a great cross section of tube sound between the EL84 and 2A3 "flavors" so it sounds like you have a very nice setup.
