They are close.
Triodes are considered very good in pushpull and 37 has them. I would not expect any appreciable difference in overall performance. I think when comparing these without specialised equipment it will be matter of personal taste/preference/affection etc.

People who do not drink, do not smoke, do not eat red meat will one day feel really stupid lying there and dying from nothing.
