Ken,

Very interesting. Thanks a lot for sharing.
Your comments resonate in a special way too me.
Because before ordering the Holland Replica from Psvane, JC Verdier, who is known as one of the best tube expert in the world, told me that the best EL34 on the market today are the JJ because when JJ bought Tesla, they got the "secret" of how to pulverize the emissive material on the cathode and they are the only ones to do it correctly.
When I saw the prices of the JJ, I thought they were too cheap to be so good.
Once again, experts are experts and their words are sacred. People like me are just stupid ignorants.
I will listen more to the Masters as I will get older, if I have the chance to get older....

On a side note, I found a web site who compares the different EL34 available on the market today.
The best ones are the Tung Sol EL34B that EveAnna sent to me for my Snappers.
The second ones are the JJ.
I will post the link as soon as I find it again.
