Best Overall Value in a KT-88 tube

Don't know much about KT-88's, but I am loving my Gold Lion KT-77's. I purchased them from tctubes.com, and got a real nice matched quad. The guys at tctubes were a pleasure to work with....you may want to speak with them about their ideas. Happy Listening.

Penta KT88SC. A smooth plate KT88 made by Shuguang and available from Dougstubes. Incredible tube that I like better than the Gold Lion KT88.

Have done business with tctubes my self the past 6 weeks. They did some testing for me plus I bought matched ECC83 and ECC88 tubes for a phono stage and cd player. Just like Adam18 they were the best for customer service and product. Highly recommend them.

Hey Saygrr............ Nice comments, and I definitely agree with you. To all who may be interested in tubes : tctubes.com is a pleasure to deal with. Now, keep in mind.... I am not a die-hard audiophile,... I am simply a guy who LOVES great sounding music, and my Rogue has definitely been sounding better since I switched to the matched Gold Lion KT-77's from tctubes.com. A few nights ago, I listened to all vinyl.... Jeff Beck's newest LP, Sonny Rollins' Way Out West, Allman Brothers at Filmore East (Elizabeth Reed and Whipping Post sides), Dave Brubeck's Time Out, and some old (yet, well preserved) Milt Jackson ... it was a great listening session. Rogue with new tubes, Rega analog front end, and my incredible Vandersteen 1C's .... it's a phenomenal experience. Happy Listening, my friends.

everyone speaks highly of the re-issue gls, has anyone tried the re-issue 12AT7 from gold lion???
