Cryoed EL34s?


Anybody here have any experience with cryoed output tubes, particularly EL34s? Even more specifically, is the modest price of treated Valve Art EL34Bs worth the price of admission over the stock version?

Thanks,

I have cryoed VA EL34's from Tubeman in my Cary Cad 50's(replacing svetlanas) I paid $69 for matched cryoed quad. The difference was immediatly noticable, the VA's have much more range and speed.

I should add that these are used to run the highs in a biamped setup so I no experience with them below 300Hz

I picked up a spare quad, I know I'll be kicking myself if these become unavailable one day.
