I own a quad of the Penta Labs, but I have not yet installed them. I do suspect that even if the tubes look and sound identical, the VAC factory tubes are cherry picked for the best of the lot. This is just a hunch, though. VAC KT88 Thread

Zodiak5, did you just happen to buy a used VAC Avatar Super on the 'GoN? You may have just beaten me to the punch. Congrats! I'll be interested in reading your impressions. Cheers, John
