Well..... Genalex (GEC) was a British vacuum tube manufacturer "back in the day" and is long gone, so they haven't and won't be making tubes any time soon. New Sensor, a company located on Long Island, NY, is producing tubes in their Russian factory using the names (Genalex, Mullard, Tung-Sol, etc.) of long defunct tube companies. Some of these tubes are quite close in design (the Gold Lion KT-88, for instance) to the originals and are excellent tubes. But, are new production in Russia rather than in the original western European factories or the USA.
