EAT was formed by Josefina, who probably has no clue what makes a good tube. She worked for some years at AVVT under Alessa Vaic and his sister, basically secretarial and order desk, what she learned - and any contacts she made - she got from Vaic.She seems to have scooped a few products and/or designs from Alessa and got a few underutilized tube factories to produce some small runs for her - and hence, the birth of EAT. The prices are astronomical and hugely out of line with the products - but that's simple marketing strategy, to create an aura of exclusivity. Most products seem to be sourced from the Tesla factory, but the 45 looks too much like the EML to be a coincidence - rumor has it they are EML offcuts.
This brand has been around for several years now, and people should ask themselves - why doesn't anyone talk about or own these tubes? Why is there no buzz about them? With only 2 current makers of 45's, for example, you would think there would be lots of people jumping to try the EAT - myself included - but there are not any. Why not?
Because the market has seen through EAT and rejected it.
And anyone who gets woody from the picture of Josefina on the EAT website is a really hardup old man. There's a lot better walking down the street most days, get out more often. Pass on the EAT tubes, might as well just buy a Tesla or JJ.
