In Reply to: REVIEW: PSVANE WE845 Tubes posted by thetubeguy1954 on March 13, 2014 at 12:21:49:
At nearly $900 a pair, I would like to hear from a few inmates before I splurge.I can say that I recently heard the high end PSVANE KT-88s in a custom made PP amp during a rather involved tube rolling session that included any number of new production and NOS power tubes and the PSVANE won handily, even over NOS quads of both Tung Sol 6550 solid and 3 hole plate tubes. I know that a KT-88 is not the same as a 6550 but this particular self biasing amp plays both types without difficulty.
If these new production tubes also have long life to go along with good sonics, all the better.
First they came for the dumb-asses
And I did not speak out
Because I was not a dumb-ass
