I would like to thank Kevin CageyH for sending me a PM re Watford Valves having some KT120's I ordered x 4 on the internet for my Rogue Titan Atlas magnum on Sunday afternoon by Monday afternoon there were none shown on the website.
4 x KT 120's arrived well packed today (Tuesday) at 1100 hrs great service all 4 worked no unwanted noises.

good stuff.. just in time it seems.. what time doyou get out of a set with that amp and your usage? a year or so?

The KT120's in the amp at the moment must be coming up for renewal as they are 4ish years old used 2-3 hours a day Monday to Friday, the Rogue Titan Atlas magnum valve bias is only 40Ma in total so not hard driven, also I have 12v computer fans under driven with old phone chargers (no noise) to cool the pre-amp and Titan Atlas valves whether this helps longevity I don't know but may.

Yes I was very lucky A. because I nearly missed the PM from CageyH B. that I got in when I did (thanks to Kevin). C. because I saw on another forum "Watford is out" (of KT120's) so I never looked and I'm the one chiding people for not doing their own research so you know the veracity & accuracy.
