New svets, as far as I can tell, with the old C-in-a-winged-circle Svetlana logo, in gold ink.The new quad is the same.
I prefer them sonically to the EH's... in fact, I found the EH's to be incapable of taking the full bias the Dynaco calls for. At approximately 1.45 volts, they'd start getting a dim, ruddy red and running extremely hot.
The Svets bias up at 1.56, and run at least half as cool.
But the damnest thing is, I"ve never seen this particular failure mode in any tube -- I've had gassers, I've had filament burnouts, I've had shorts, but I've never had a tube before that flat-out refused to bias -- and still worked.
Interesting to note, these new Svet 34's are double-getters. They look, and sound, similar to Mullard.
