RE: New sensor mullard kt88's

"I wasn't implying he did as good a job matching as you do."

What I was driving at was that the "matched" sets from NS are often far enough mismatched that it could cause problems for the end-user. A 15 ma mismatch - unless correctable with individual bias adjustment for each tube - and 450 plate volts would cause the "hottest" tube to have to dissipate almost 7 watts more heat than a tube 15 ma. cooler biasing. That's no small matter, at least IMHO.
