MADE IN SLOVAKIA

General Description

The KT77 is an octal-based beam power pentode , suitable for use in the vast majority of amplifiers designed for the EL34 . Compared to the EL34 and E34L, it offers more available power, more authoritative bass and greater headroom , while maintaining a high level of detail and balanced tonal reproduction.

The KT77 JJ represents one of the most successful modern interpretations of this historic valve: a production designed to guarantee reliability, electrical coherence and high-level sonic performance .

The tubes are NEW , supplied in the original JJ box , and carefully selected and matched in our laboratory using AMPLITREX , to ensure stable, uniform and repeatable operation within the amplifier.

A highly popular choice as an advanced alternative to the EL34 , the KT77 JJ retains its underlying musicality while adding control, extension and authority .

Sound Characteristics

The KT77 JJ's tone is modern, balanced and solid, with a coherent response across the entire audio spectrum.

Mids: Rich, present, and well-structured. Vocals sound natural and well-defined, with excellent intelligibility and no excessive coloration.

Highs: Open, tidy, and well-extended. The highs are clean and detailed, never aggressive, and are suitable even for high-resolution systems.

Dynamics: Responsive and controlled. The KT77 JJ responds promptly to transients and conveys a sense of controlled power, making it versatile and musical across a wide variety of genres.

Soundstage: Wide and stable soundstage, with good depth and proper instrument separation. The imaging is focused and believable.
