Hi
Glad you like them. In a lot of applications they are very good. They sound great in a Citation V and I have used them in several guitar amps I have repaired. Only caveat is that they are all over the map for current draw so you generally buy 10 of them for cheap and match them in the amp. Once you find a pair that are pretty close they hold their bias very steadily, and you have heard the sound. Tough as nails too. A certain vendor who posts here all the time has bought a large number of them and matches them expertly (not me!). They cost just a bit more than buying them yourself from Russia, but are perfectly matched and still quite inexpensive. A good solution if you need matched ones.
