@don_c55 , No worries Don! Good points.
I think you've (and several others) have answered it by saying none of the Russian/Chinese reissues just don't measure up and aren't worth it.
I am looking for a new tube that has some air on top, a la GE 5814as, Ciftes, etc., or at least some syrup in the midrange. I can stick with NOS for sure.
