WE 300B tubes are manufactured in the original (1930's) Western Electric factory in Rossville Georgia USA.
Western Electric - Maker of electron tubes and high fidelity
Close. Some of the Kansas City Works tube production equipment is in use at the Rossville plant. The Rossville plant is a new facility set up by Whitener. Western Electric predominately manufactured tubes at the massive Hawthorne works in Illinois, just outside Chicago. Western Electric later moved tube production to Kansas City in the 60’s. Engineering work was carried out in New York.
Many people, over many years, have doubted Whitener, calling his efforts vaporware. But, he’s proven them all wrong.
How many tubes out there have a five year warranty? I can’t think of another. 🙄

If you are only listen to vocal, instruments and Jazz, Cossor is very good..

I bought Cossor 300B from Victor and really like it, but I also have never heard any others. At the same time I dont feel a need to change.
No Matter what...
