RE: KT77 for EL34 amp?

Although they are expensive, the Genelex Gold Lion KT-77s are a great replacement for the EL-34s.

I had to increase the bias adjustment of my amps a bit to get it right.

Don't know if they are a direct drop in replacement for non-adjustable-bias amps.

I've had good luck with Jon at Tube Store dot com in purchases as well as info when needed.

FWIW - I preferred the sound in every way with the Genelex KT-77s. Don't know about other KT-77s. They may all be an improvement, AFAIK.


Best regards,

Jim Smith
