Difference between KT88 EAT and NOS in Jadis

I use an Octet of selected Gold lion reissues in a DA-60. I bought them from Jim Mcshane over on AA tubes asylum classified. These tubes took me by surprise. I told him wht I wanted them to do. He gave a single answer this is it nothing else will be what I like or he likes for that matter. They are simply superb all around, fantastic!
They are expensive for current production but nothing like the EAT. I really don't believe that you can acquire a truly matched octet of never been used 1960s even 70s KT-88s, unless a private collector is willing to part with them. The price I couldn't even guess but the amount will never be printed that is for sure.

I used some kt 88( almost all kind), and in my amplifier ( audioaero ) kt 88 gold lion reissues, is better than kt88 EAT tubes, both are the best in production, but I think gold lion is more transparent . I think i very expensive th EAT tubes .

My audio cohort bought a quad of Gold Lions for his Cary Rocket 88. Absolutely wonderful sounding tubes.

Hopefully things have changed since last year. Here are comments at Audiogon on the subject of Gold Lion that I found via search:

I recently aquired an octet of GL 88's from Jim McShane and they have been on since Thursday evening. Ever since then, I have had nothing but pure musical enjoyment. No isses, they were a matched set and were easy to bias on my Octave amps. The bass is deeper, well more powerful, the complete sound spcetrum is even, where the SED C 88's I had before had a tipped up mid range and lacked in bass, the GL's are even across the spectrum. The radience (new audiophile word, ha) is more immersive then before, great depth, width and detailed instrumentality. There is nothing I can bad at all at this time about these tubes. They have projected my system into the league of does it get any better then this? I mean, I am amazed at the thwack of bass strokes, the voices popping out of nowhere, this is what it is about. I had elements of those traits before, but now, it is on a grander scale.

From my perspective, the GL88's have been one of the best tweaks in my system in a long time. I have had EH, TAD, SED winged C's and now the GL's in my system, and the GL's by far are the most musical.
