@dmhenley thanks for posting your impressions. If anyone hears the Sophia Electric EL34's myself and several others here are eager for feedback.
Sophia Electric KT88-ST impressions
I've had a pair of the SE KT88-ST in my amp for a short time. 75+ hours of play time.
They perform better than everything else I have here. Gold Lion KT66/77/88. PSVane 6CA7-Z'S black bottles. Wide open mids. More linear performance from top to bottom. Great extension at both extremes. Balanced and musical. And, I'm using them in an ampsandsound Mogwai. 3 single-ended watts into 8 ohms. Time will tell re: reliability and longevity.
Any else tried these?
