KT90 experience?


I've heard that the KT90 tube delivers more power than the KT88...anyone have any experience with this substitution? I've read the other postings and it sounds like I can expect more of a "solid state" sound...specifically, I'm looking at the new EH KT90 tube (I'm using their KT88 now with good results, but feel that my speakers could use a little more punch). Any responses appreciated.

yep. sound with KT90s in my quicksilver silver monos is more punch, solidarity, better bass, leaner, more neutral - and yes feels like more power. I've only compared them to chinese valve art KT88. It wsa my first KT88 tube roll and I have no reason to look any further. I like them that much. Thank you.

Kevin Deal has written a little bit about them on his website. Also check out Evanna Manley's comments in various forums and some of the (I think) Aronov amp users. All love the KT90, specifically the Ei KT90. I'm using the Ei KT90 type3.
