Best kt88 for VAC Avatar Super

You can trust Roger Modjeski's tube matching service. His tube have biased very closely in pairs per channel in my amp. BTW, he plans to test the TungSol KT120s (by popular demand on his forum). Hopefully, he'll then decide to carry/sell this tube.

OK, with only 5 hours on them, these new issue Gold Lion KT88s are starting to show their stuff. I'll report in as they find their groove in my VAC Phi 200. So far, they sound good, not great, but good – like a mass-market stereo system at its best.

I'm ordering the Black Treasures KT88-Zs soon, so I'll be able to A/B them when the BTs burn in, in about, what, a year or so? Sounds like they take a long time, but are worth it.

stick with the kevin recomendation he knows best.i have had 2 of his amps and he knows his tubes,you are better off buying them from him also

Lewisg, what other tubes have you tried in your VAC amps?

Sungaung GEKT88 from GD Audiio have been recommended to me as the best budget KT88 and the Treasure tubes as even better.
