Favorite 300B: Sophia vs KR


Which do you prefer; S.E.T. Princess 300B Carbon Plate or KR 300B WE Clone?

I've only experienced NOS 40's/50's WE so my expectations are pretty high. Which do you think captures the essence of the WE most closely? I'm trying to keep the cost down as much as possible so EAT is not an option, as much as I was blown away by their KT88. I considered current WE but they're not in production until Spring 2011.

I just forgot to mention KR 300B Baloon type, seems that they are very, very good, put them on my list now.

Here some impressions http://www.enjoythemusic.com/magazine/equipment/0705/kraudio300bballon.htm

Congrats on Sophia's, let us know what you think of them.

Tvad: Seriously. Enough already. It's relative. You don't know me or my situation. Take your righteous crusade somewhere else. And please get your facts straight; they were $450, not $525. I tried to find used ones.
