I'm in agreement with Len. All of the flat plate Syls I have are from 1951. One plate is slightly in front of the other. Unlike Ken-Rad, they are mounted straight on the mica, rather than on a diagonal (reminiscent of RCA). There were both a black plate and a gray plate version made in 1951 that have very different sounds. The gray plate has a lush midrange, but lacks fine detail. The black plate has plenty of detail, but can sound a bit harsh. Neither of them has anywhere near the finesse of the Tung Sol RP.
