In Reply to: RE: KT88 Tubes Better than Gold Lions? posted by artemus on June 21, 2021 at 08:08:00
"Better" is a term only you can define for yourself. I think the GLs are superb - and they are very reliable. It seems your opinion and mine differ...
But it appears you are looking for a tube that has more top end energy - so why don't you try the EH KT-88s? They are a VERY good tube but because they have a bit less deep bass than the GLs they will seem more energetic on top. They might be the tube you want - and they are much lass costly than the other tubes.
Just my $0.02 worth...
Follow Ups:
there's a friendly family "feud" at VTL between using the GL KT-88 (Bea) and 6550 (Luke) in their amplifiers. They offer the choice so no one is left out.
I'm running my last set of regular production SED 6550Cs (before quality stock disappeared) on the MB-450s. I'm inclined to follow Bea's preference next time around.
Thanks Jim. Before I order something with more top end, I had better consult with wifey. She can hear top end very good but I can't and just remembered that. My lack of hearing may be the culprit.
I will consider that and drop you an email soon. I have a few questions
=========================
You paid HOW MUCH for that electrical receptacle?!!! Are YOU nuts?
You haven't been wrong yet with any advice you've given me over the last 20 or so years.
Stay well buddy!
