Current tube Manufacturer's as good as NOS Best


I have been reading with interest many of the posts on tubes and have come to the conclusion that NOS tubes from 40 -60 years ago sound better than tubes from current manufacturers. Why is that? If that is the case then why hasn't some manufacturer come out with a tube that competes with or betters the old stuff. It would seem that with the current popularity of tube equipment someone could come up with a better product. Curious to hear some answers.

There are some new companies that are out to beat NOS quality. Check out Euro Audio Team. Hifi+ magazine gave it a Product of the Year Award in issue 36. They compared their tubes to the reviewer's precious NOS tubes and were shocked to find the new EAT tubes winning hands down. Arthur
