EAT KT-88 tubes


I purchased eight EAT KT-88 tubes for my CJ amplifier. They sound fantastic, but two tubes went bad in 300 hours of use. Has any one else had issues with these tubes?

In Germany EUR 450,- for a pair (matched, obviously).

Ignore those exact figures for a moment. I bought them for my EUR 2.2k Unison S2K, a very big leap of faith indeed. But one I have never remotely regretted from the first moment on. Can it compete with a 20k amp now? Don't know, but it sure has become another amp, definitely better in every respect (you're spot on:"sing" is indeed what it does).
I just received word from Mussc Hall that the second tube will be replace at no charge. I think the US retail is $800.00 for a matched pair. Expensive, but worth it.
Exelchuck, I am sure they sound spectacular, but certain factors have to be weighed, like the fact that it would cost me $4,800 to retube my amp with the EAT tubes!!
