what happened to Golden Tube?


Whatever happened to Golden Tube amps? When did they go away?

Back in the day, I remember Accutronics of Ann Arbor having a whole row of them on display, as an economical alternative to Cary (Dennis Had days).

Had their SE40's then graduated to their Special Edition 300B mono-blocks with WE300B tubes.Also had their SEP-1 preamp with phono. The 300B's were very special amps to say the least. Creamy was their tone signature while still articulate. I wish I still had them but you move on to other adventures in the Hi-Fi world.
I still have GTA SE40 monoblocks that I bought used almost 20 years ago.  Very light use the last 10 years, but they still work.  I plan to do the SonicCraft updates at some point.   I should really sell them as I have other amplifiers that I use more often, but it's hard to let them go.
They pop up on USA Audiomart all the time saw some SE40 monos just the other day with the SonicCraft updates.
