I'm told they sound pretty good and are reasonable in price. I'm interested in them because Gold Lion or Mullard NOS are getting out of sight. Anyone heard Yugo KT-90s?
I am now using Svetlana KT 88 (4pcs.) for my Melos 11 ST 90 amplifier and it sounds better than my former GE 6550A and Svetlana 6550C tubes. You will not go wrong with Svetlana KT 88. Regards. Slore
They are a wonderful, well made, bullet proof tube. Care should be taken as with any power tube to make sure they are burned in prior to matching IF your amp neeeds matched tubes. They ahve a midrange that is a little "prettier" than the 6550C. They look great...nice bottle.
They are very good tubes but not perfect, perhaps the NOS Genelax KT88 are the best but the Sev kt88 have been in my system for about 1 month now and I very much enjoy them. They have a beautifull midrand and good overall balance. Greater clairity and sweetness than the Sev 6550C whicch are also very good, espically for the money. Right now I will keep my Sev kt88. John
