Chinese tubes being made. I remember reading time and again how bad they were and reliability so on.... I for one (and others) have found this to fall short of my experience. Having only dealt with the high dollar triodes like 300b and 45 and a hand full of rectifiers and small 9 pins, Im far from an expert. However I cant recall feeling a major let down. But as long as old US made 9 pin tubes are affordable, better options exist. I did have a bad experience with the Russian JJ 5ar4 tubes. One started sparking in my amp, and it was supposed to be the new production JJ GZ34. But Ive read good things of the China 5ar4s. For now Im using either old US made GZ34s or Mullard GZ37 which are somewhat cheap and abundant. However in the Chinese 300b and 45 depo, Ive thoroughly impressed. Even the solid plate Shuguang that came with my amp sounded quite good. The mesh 98C ones sounded much better though. All in all Im kinda compelled to try more of the cheaper 300b to get a few more taste tests of my own. Really curious about those EH tubes. I just cant say enough about these Chinese mesh 300b and 45 tubes. Im happy
