I remmeber back in the mid 70s when I was fixing tvs..Channel master made 25xp22 crts..They were labled maverick which was the one year warranty and the Monarch which was the two year warranty and then there was the optivue plus which was the 5year warranty.
Now channel master said they are the same tube and same content and what they did was test and grade the tubes off the same off the same line and the best testing ones were the 5 year and next best was the two year and the cheap one was the one year..They also sold to tubes to admiral which was the two year version for their production and replacement tubes..I know they used to this with receiving tubes also and thats why you may get a tube thats not as good even tho its made by a major manufacturer because they always had the grading system.
Look at the genelex kt88..Some are called gold lion and some are called gold monarch and some are just genelex..That was a grading system for quality also.
