Steve,Disagreeing with you is an act of hate????? Asking for legitimate proof is an act of hate?????
I do not hate you or your products. I do not disagree with other claims you've made. IHTs do produce less hum than DHTs, other things being equal. Triode connected pentodes often do have more gain than triodes. Triode connected pentodes can make excellent amplifier output tubes and fine sounding amps. The Rp of a KT88 is very similar to the Rp of a 300B. Triode connected KT88 amps *may* have lower distortion than a 300B amp, but whether this is true or not depends on the design of the amps and has nothing to do with the tube itself.
What I do disagree with is your claim that a KT88 has lower distortion than a 300B. That's all; plain and simple. You offer the data on your web site as proof of your claim. By your own admission, this web site lists distortion figures for the WE300B that come from Western Electric's data sheets. This data was either measured or calculated for the 300B output tube in isolation. The data you provide for the KT88 is at the output of a complete amplifier. Because of this, comparison of these two pieces of data are not meaningful, i.e. you're comparing apples to oranges. For pointing this out, you accuse me of hatred and lies?????
