the best kt88 tube there is available?

now running sed 6550-c's. am interested in trying the kt88's. But wish to do this once. I have been considering between the gold lions and the shuguang treasure kt88-z's. Since I am unable to hear them in my system I must rely on those with experiance. I have read the reviews but I am interested in goners in the know. thanks for the insight whatever it is.

I relize this. But the "best"(highest quality) kt88 tubes should sound great in any aplication where kt88 are the choice. so, to me, my question is reasonable. I am only interested in KT88 tubes.

actually I spoke with Bea at VTL. she said the shuguang treasure kt88z are kt88s made in a chinese factory. they "do not use chinese tubes especially for output because they don't usually meet the specifications required for VTL amplifiers." you can't argue with that. she suggests the gold lion kt88s or SED kt88s. so there you have it.
