. . . . . I'm getting tired of this stupid, hypothetical debate. I'll go ahead and spring for a quad of the re-issues and decide for myself. Then I'll know firsthand "what's right"! To hell with Mr. Kong and his second-hand publication reports!
BTW, I recently A-B'd some NOS Gold Lion EL34's (KT-77's) in a pair of Marantz Model 8's (driving Quad ESL 57's), against some NOS Teles (which are NOT cheap either!) and it's was the same thing -- "shimmer." Or should I just advise my friend not to buy the NOS GL KT-77's and wait 'til New Sensor decides to "re-issue" those too ;-)
