Your Odyssey is using "standard SET design". The synergy between driver and output is much more critical than with the Eternity using input (not driver) and output tubes using @MrCurwen design.The different sound shouldn’t be too much of a surprise really.
With Odyssey, you always have to find a good matching combo as the input will give a lot of flavor and also critical to feed output tube.
With our design, the most important is to have good gain matching. We can ear effect of inputs to outputs, but it is always subtil for me in the same range of gain and noise.
