Introducing the Ray Tubes 300B RESERVE - Now Available on Apos Audio

[Apos Audio]

Hi all,

We are thrilled to announce another release from Ray Tubes: the 300B RESERVE, available in singles, matching pairs, and matching quads. These are tested by sound engineers, ship fast and free, and come with a 12-month warranty.



The Best of the Best
The RESERVE Collection of Ray vacuum tubes are artfully designed and carefully manufactured solely for hifi audiophile devices. With the RESERVE, vocals are a revelation: smooth, lifelike, and beautifully present. They convey a sense of realism and immediacy without any bloat, offering a gentle yet compelling delivery with superior decay. The treble is crisp yet laid-back, carefully balanced to avoid sibilance or harshness. This balanced sound signature extends to the low-end as well: full and commanding, contributing to an overall superbly realistic imaging that is brain-scratchingly good.



Product highlights 

• Hand-selected and tested
• Gold pins for corrosion resistance and excellent conduction
• A substantial upgrade from standard NOS tubes
• Magic Coating: Monocrystalline carbon coating enhances sound by
• cooling, blocking noise, and allowing for quicker electron transmission
• Low noise and microphonics
• Matched quad (4 tubes) or pair (2 tubes) or single tube (1 tube)
• Fewer than 5% of the tubes commissioned for production meet our voltage, current, and sound signature standards
• 12-month warranty against manufacturing defects

A Review Tour would be cool on these.

They look nearly identical to the Psvane 300b-z, plus all technical characteristics identical. They are though a few mm higher than the z's. Seems like a custom run from Psvane with strict selection.

Very expensive at 2000 usd.

Which amp are you using if you need a quad of 300Bs?

 

[Chris1967]

I am not using quad 300b's, i am using a pair on my Cary 300B sei. If you need Quad i suppose you have to contact the manufacturer of your choice and ask.

 

[Chris1967]

Ok sorry my mistake it 1000 usd for a pair and 2000usd for quad

Well you mentioned 2k as price, which is the price for the matched quad.

Yes if you look at the above post from yours, you can see that i said i made a mistake, had you pointed it out in the first place we would not have posted 4 posts about it. But there you have it.

Still expensive if you ask me for a chinese tube, but lets hear a few reviews and comparisons first.
