“These tubes are well balanced, detailed, nuanced, and they possess great clarity with a seductive quality that draws you into the music. I’ve tried various el 34’s, Kt 120’s, kt 150’s, and Gold Lion kt 88’s. They all sound unique and I like them all to varying degrees. I’d have to say overall I like the kt77’s the best with the kt88’s coming in a close second. The Gold Lions , both the kt 77’s and kt 88’s , just seem to have slightly greater clarity than other tubes I’ve tried. I can hear deeper into the soundstage with more apparent detail and ambient retrieval than with the other tubes. The difference is not night and day, but it is noticeable, which makes the listening experience more satisfying. I highly recommend the kt77’s!”

“Love the Upscale Cyro KT77. The sound, in my rig, is simply beautiful and closely reminds me of what I hear in live music (I'm an orchestra player.) Did have one early failure with a non-cyro KT77. Cyro starts out sounding better than the non-cyro and seems longer lasting.”

“This is the best sounding power tube I’ve used in the Decware Tori MK 4.”

“I bought these EL34's to compare with the KT120's. I have the Primaluna Dialogue Premium HP amp going to Klipschorns. I prefer the KT120's, but it was a good comparison nonetheless.”
