Has anyone had a chance to compare RK 300B to Takatsuki? Takatsuki 300B plus Takatsuki recti might be a killing combination on the new GG2 or Pacific.
The difference between stock 300B and Takatsuki tubes in my amplifier was huge. Also, RK 300B spec. sheet says that the tubes are 100% compliant with the WE 300B specification. So, how can they be a cross between 300b and 242, if they are made to match the WE 300b specs?I have compared Tak 300b to elrog 300b in the Alieno amplifier, at audioquattr's, and he also owns Pacific (previously owned GG). Unfortunately his Lampi is always balanced so difficult to compare all these valves in the Lampi.
I have separately owned the elrog 300b for the Lampi and didn't like them. The delta between the Tak and the elrog in the amplifier was more in the difference of presentation rather than quality. As such, I am not a fan of 300b but the RK could be different, as it was designed to be a cross between the 300b and the 242 for the Lampi, rather than just another 300b.

Only have the emission labs 5u4g don’t have KR
You should definitely get the KR 5u4g Lampi recti.
I roll quite a lot but I always come back to KR 242 and KR 5u4g white base Lampi recti.
This combi is my absolute favorite.
But if you are going to buy a new recti anyways, I would try the new RK KR 5u4g rectifier, which is only a littel more expensive than the KR 5u4g white base Lampi recti and people say the RK version sounds even a little bit better...
I don't know. That's what I heard. I haven't heard the RK properly myself.
Thanks Norman.
anyone tried these Psvane? http://psvanetube.com/wordpress/store/products/psvane-we274b-11-replica-single/

Yes I own them too. They are ok in the right setup but no starr and not like the real ones
So what recti are people recommending with the RK 300B's?
Thanks Norman.
