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.
These tubes have been burned in, thoroughly tested at 500v on the AT1000, and premium matched for both plate current (mA) and transconductance (Gm). Learn more about our burn-in and testing process here. This burn-in and matching service is included in the prices listed here.
Choose from precisely matched pairs, quads, sextets, or octets. Higher quantities of matched tubes are available--please inquire for availability.
