RE: Has anyone compared the two 845 "WE" tubes

Hey,

I have no arguments about the sound. I read the explanation and it still reads like Ad copy to me. Both the RCA 845 and the WE 284 had metal plates and the "replica" has carbon plates and that alone is enough to make me feel that the WE is added to justify the higher price and give some sort of perceived added value. If you took the WE designation off the tube the audio gods would cry foul at the pricing.

(has anyone traced the curves of these things?)
