Gold Lion KT77 tubes for Primaluna Amp - a few questions
That's a good price from Viva guys but have any of you had them very long? I had persistent issues with tube failure prior to buying my KT77's from Upscale. And that was with multiple vendors so happy to pay more for longer tube life. Also more th...
