http://www.westernelectric.com/index.htmlMy father used to work at the KC WE plant. When I told him WE made vacuum tubes he didn't know anything about it. He never had anything to do with the WE vacuum tubes or vacuum tube gear but I'd have thought he couldn't have missed 'em.
What's this about GEC Gold Lions???
Follow Ups:
Don't hold your breath, that gold lions thing has been up there since at least 1998 or so. coming 'real soon now'. ;-)
lol...thanks. I did talk to the WE guy today...perhaps he is full of chit still?

The Genelex KT88 are due out late 05. They are being made in England with the old GEC tooling according to the WE spokesman.

But will they have the same cathode formulations and coating techniques?

I seriously doubt everything will be the same.....I dont think it is possible. I bet they try to make us think so though :) I will say in WE's defense that the recent 300Bs are wonderful imo.
