Very Nice KT88
by Richard Heilman
I've used these for some time in my VAC 220 Monoblocks and they are quite dependable. The bass end is quite tight and detail is pretty darn good, with warm and natural harmonics and sweet highs. I use vintage Martin-Logan CLS electrostatic speakers, which can sound like White Lightning on the top end, so clean and natural treble is a must. These tubes deliver a wonderfully musical quality that I am very pleased with. A slight lack of space and stage depth keeps them from a 5 Star rating, but overall an excellent KT88.
A Great KT88
by Andrew
It's amazing how good a current production tube can sound. I've used this in a HiFi amp, with Partridge Output Transformers, and it sounds fantastic. I've also compared this tube to the NOS Miniwatt UK made KT88s and they sound pretty much the same.
