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.

Hi Charles,
He said he prefers these new 300bs to the tresures. Subtle of course, but that what it is in this area of audio, isn't it?
The 6EM7 is a special tube. I was asking if different brands would alter the sound of my amp.

Hi,
Montejay, thanks for the clarifications.
I know you`ve been very happy with the S.Treasures, are you going to try the Pavane versions and compare?
Best Regards,

Takatsuki 300b,
In the current 6 moons.com this made in japan tube has a highly impressive review. It could be the new standard among current production premium 300b tubes.

Its been already described by some guys who owns the best 300B out there that these are new top range product, so, 6moons is bit late:-)

But if I have to be more serious, its not that exciting for us, because the price in EU will be around EUR1300-1500, crazy, if you ask me. If thats the true, I am out.
