Fancy KT-88's for Mcintosh
Shuguang Treasure 'Black Bottle' KT88-Z (MSRP US$300/pair) + US$25.00 optional extended warranty (12-month) | Grant Fidelity Home Audio
not as crazy priced as the EAT's but seem to be gaining steam. Anyone heard them yet? Mark

I like the Blue Tubes better.

They're only $200/pair from TNT. and they (supposedly) have a Gm (transcoductance) of 12,000 umhos; which is the same as NOS Gold Lions (when new, my used ones are 10,000) and (supposedly) the same as EATS (but we all know they - ahem - exaggerate? ;-)
Reissue Gold Lions and Shuguang KT88SC's are around 7,500 when new, and EH's (as supplied by McIntosh) are around 5,000. http://www.supertnt.com/product;k;100 Last edited by nsgarch; 05-17-2009 at 06:27 PM. |

I still have my original Genalex KT88 that came with my MC60 monoblock. The reissue Genalex sounded very good. Very close to the original.
