Big difference in price and availability. Please clarify, as I may be in the market for inexpensive re-issues for my Mac MC275.

I have listened to the VAC, EH, Ruby, Shuguang, and probably a couple that I can't think of right now and the gold lion is hard to beat. Check the archives, there had been a couple of very thorough and informative posts on kt88 tubes.
