likely sour grapes from some other tube distribtor. Do some research here and you will find plenty of posts regarding the truth of what the arrangement is. SuperTNT is a manufacturer of sorts, they supply parts for their specific versions to Shuguang. They never sold into the foriegn market against anyones wishes. The gray market sellers that sold domestic chinese tubes into the foriegn market are the ones that did the reputation damage (if any). SuperTNT has always been the best and most reliable source for these tubes, they test far more and more strictly than shuguang does.

The superTNT 845M looks unique since superTNT produces the plate themselves and no one else has access to it. the 845C (early 845M) and the 845W are lower-dissipation 845s, using the earlier style metal plate. the 845C has added 'wings' on the plate.

It pisses me off when lazy people spout BS and pass it off as accurate information. Do some actual research before posting rubbish in the future please.

thanks
