Retubing my McIntosh MC2102

ditto for the Genalex KT 88's.....

Jgiacalo,

"I find the Genalex Gold Lion KT88s vastly superior to both Winged Cs and the stock Mc tubes".

What equipment were you using when you made the comparison? My experience is different than yours. I believe it is in the application of the tubes with certain electronics where people have different experiences. I am not using Mc's but some German brand tube amps, but the GL and SED's sound pretty close in nature, the GL's exhibit a totally flat frequency response from top to bottom, whereas the SED's offer a little bit more top end sizzle in my application. Bass seems to be the same. Both sound great in my system, I really cannot decide which one is better, they both sound great, just a little different. That is on other than Mc gear as I stated.

Ciao,

Thanks to all who had response to this topic.

Thanks for your feed back. I decided also on the SEDs.

Thank you. I now decided on the SED Winged C tubes.
