RE: Reissue GL or Psvane KT88 II

The one place I can't get as much tone out out of new production power tubes are guitar/bass amps but it may have to do with how they break up etc. In a Ampeg SVT nothing seems to get near a GE 6550A. In a Marshall a Mullard, pre JJ Tesla or RTF el34 or GE 6550A. Maybe Fenderlover can weigh in if he has the same experience.

For stereo though I agree although it's hard for me to pay so much as the Goldlion or etc without knowing if they have some added durability. A Electro Harmoinix 6CA7 in a amp such as a ST70 sounds mighty good to me and isn't priced at a premium.
