RE: That's so sad...

Eli -

To me, re-branding military surplus tubes as Amperex or placing a Gold Lion branding on a Russian tube is less than honest. It's especially sad when folks are surprised to see a TungSol 5881 that isn't made in Russia.

As NOS becomes increasingly unobtainable I'm thankful that New Sensor and others have placed several types back into current production. Many current production tubes are quite decent, but I would prefer that they would stand on their own merits.
