Hi, Really good to know the venerable 807 is an excellent audio tube. I was brought up with 807's in the marine environment, generally as RF amplifiers and modulator tubes. Notably used in the Marconi Oceanspan Transmitter. The 807 was durable and reliable under such adverse conditions. Hope its quite the same within the audio field.

Apparently the KT8(C) was a British attempt to improve on the 807 with limited success.
