TUNGSRAM ECC83 / 12AX7

Tungsram ECC83 / 12AX7 / B339

Made in Hungary from around 1970-80s. Have the metal stamped clip, copper grid posts, support rods. This tube is very open, fuller sounding, moderately warm and very transparent usually with very low noise and microphonics. Sonically comparable only to top NOS contenders as Mullard, RCA etc. Standing out with their dynamics, solid bass and great overtones lately became very sought after by guitar people. Great for hi-fi and guitar! We believe that this is an excellent ECC83/12AX7 NOS tube with the best quality/price ratio of today. We currently have Military OEM tubes available.
