Available now is a professional-grade matched pair of Sylvania 12AU7A / ECC82 tubes, proudly manufactured in the USA. These vintage specimens feature the classic Top Ring Getter and Gray Plate construction, sought after by audiophiles for their clear, balanced tone and reliable performance in high-fidelity preamplifiers.
Both tubes have undergone extensive testing on our Amplitrex AT1000 digital laboratory system. We present the results using our Percentage Method, which provides a direct comparison between these vintage units and their original 100% factory design-center specifications.
