Sonics
The Tokyo Shibaura Electric Co. 12AU7A double triode’s most distinctive sonic feature is its transparent, neutral, spacious presentation, with a light touch of warmth illuminating your music. I refer to the many threads on the web for more information. Excellent preamp valve and because of the low noise level, very suitable in phono stages.
