  Favorite 300B: Sophia vs KR

Which do you prefer; S.E.T. Princess 300B Carbon Plate or KR 300B WE Clone?

I've only experienced NOS 40's/50's WE so my expectations are pretty high. Which do you think captures the essence of the WE most closely? I'm trying to keep the cost down as much as possible so EAT is not an option, as much as I was blown away by their KT88. I considered current WE but they're not in production until Spring 2011.

Congratulations Charles1dad!
You took a chance - it paid off.
Will they warranty the tubes this side of the pond? If so, what would that entail? Shipping back to Japan?

When do you expect the RPs to arrive?
