I Have the KR's powering my PL HP, 8 tubes in all. I did pay less then $1000.00 a few years ago. 16 total. There's always pos. & neg. opinions on price, performance,etc. Me, I swear by them. Tried many well known tubes before I went to the KR family. These tubes are phenomenal! I'm running a Don Sachs pre-amp feeding to my Klipsch base horns, & Altecs 311's with Facial pro tweeters. If anyone wonders what fast base should sound like, my setup can show you. +1 for the KR's
KR Audio KT88 Vacuum Tubes
Does anyone have experience with these power tubes? I understand they are well made and likely last longer than their Russia or Chinese counterparts. But, they are much more expensive. My real question has to do with the KR Tubes sound quality. Would you replace good sounding Gold Lion KT88s with the KR Audio tubes for a sound quality benefit? I've also read they make the similarly expensive EAT brand tubes that some prefer.
