My search for tubes for my rogue cronus magnum has ended.I have tried el34's, kt77's,kt90's,6ca7 treasure and finally the kt120's.All i can say is WOW !!. this is the finest tube that i have ever heard in this amp. powerful lows,crisp clean and soaring highs, they just lit up this amp like no other tubes. I am so glad that I tried the cryo version, an outstanding product.If you have a rogue magnum or any amp that can use this tube you should try them. I have never written a fan letter for a tube but these are worth it.

Even response along the frequency range with an extended top thatâ€:tm:s not bright. Soundstage is very good. I didnâ€:tm:t find them to be obviously more powerful, however, thereâ€:tm:s an effortlessness to their sound with a wide dynamic range that maybe tells the real story. Among current production tubes the Tung-Sol Reissue 6550s are among my favorites and to that small group Iâ€:tm:d have to add these KT-120s. Iâ€:tm:d purchase them again. (This review is based on listening to eight of them in a conrad-johnson Premier 140 amplifier over QUAD ESL-989 speakers.)
