Brand New Genalex Gold Lion KT88 Matched Quad (4 tubes) In 1957 Marconi-Osram Valve Co. (Genalex) introduced the “King of Power Tubes”, the legendary Gold Lion KT88. This tube became the heart and soul of such classics as the Dynaco Mark III, McIntosh MC275, and Marshall Major. Unfortunately, Genalex ceased tube production in the early 1980s and the Genalex Gold Lion KT88 has become very expensive and hard to find. After extensive research and engineering, New Sensor Corp. has reissued the famed Genalex Gold Lion KT88. This tube has been recreated down to the finest detail with gold plated grid wire, carbonized screen grids, and a tri-alloy clad plate structure for exceptional performance and sound quality. Our Matching Policy At Tonal Tubes we match tubes using a tester that enables us to match tubes at high plate voltages as well as various bias voltages. This means that when you install these tubes, they will be a tight match inside your amplifier. We have very strict standards when it comes to matching. We match power tubes within 5% for plate current and 10% for transconductance. Most other retailers will match to just one of these values, however it is important to have both of these values matched. This is not a simple process and does take lots of time and dedication since tubes can vary so much from the factory. Having matched power tubes is important because it reduces hum from your amplifier. It also allows you to get more life out of your tubes, since each tube will be working approximately the same amount. Both the plate current and transconductance will be written on each and every tube box.
