Recommend 300b tubes for Frankenstein Amps


I purchased a pair of used Kr 300b Ballons with about 100 hours for my Coincident Frank. Amps. It is or was an excellent match with my Total Victory IV Loudspeakers. At about 60 hours of play one of the tubes went dead .
So my question is .
Is there another that is reliable that sounds as good as the Balloons ?
Any suggestions are appreciated.

Emission Labs 300B-XLS, or if you can adjust the bias and get away with less output try the EML 300B-mesh.

I have about 500 hours on my Shuguang Treasure Series(Black glass) tubes. They sound wonderful and have been reliable.I got them from Grant Audio for 600.00 per pair, not cheap but I have no complaints. The Frankenstein MK2 amps are top tier and deserve premium tubes. Israel Blume has warned amplifier owners about premature failure with these KR tubes,
Thanks everyone for the responses. I emailed Israel and he also recommends the Black Glass. He said they sound as good as the kR Balloons and are very reliable. He is currently using a pair as we speak.
Hey Abill, I don't want to hijack the thread but how are you liking the Victory IV?

I've had the Victory IV's for almost a year and I have no desire to get ride of them. I was using them with a well known 300b amp, which I sold. I purchased a Coincident Frankenstein amp and the speakers sound much better . Then I purchased coincident Extreme power cables and rca interconnects and I can't believe how much better everything sounds. Never sounding harsh very well balanced sound from top to bottom.
If you purchase the victory IV's and you don't like the sound it's not the speakers.
I think Coincident is the best value for the dollar !
Israel is always quick to respond to emails.
Hope this helps.
