Type 45 Tubes for stereo amplifiers

I’m burning in a pair of EML 2A3 mesh tubes now for a monoblock pair I’m working on. Using them in a 20 year old Tektron TK2 2A3/50.

I’ve also got a pair of EML 300B tubes I’ve used for over a year.

Both sound awesome, the 2A3’s so far a little more “refined” but I’ve only got about 10 hours on them.

Can’t praise them highly enough. I think, for the price point, they’re one of the best deals going. And a 5 year warranty.

Someone mentioned SOPHIA tubes. I have a pair of 300b 2.5v Sophias mfd in 1972 that are still going strong. Great value for the money.

I have a Dennis Had Inspire "Fire Bottle" amp and LP3.1 preamp, and the "Fire Bottle uses 45's.  I love my Emission Labs 45's.

RCA  coke bottle style 34's sound very good and are reasonably priced.

I have used them in  my 45 amp..

Sorry, misstyped. 45 not 34.

A little off the subject but has anyone had experience with KR Audio tubes?

I’ve got four Gold Lion KT88s, nearly new, in the C-J ART27 amp now and wondering if I would hear a difference with the KR Audio tubes.

A bit pricy at 1300 for the set.

Thanks
