Description
Unused tubes German army stock !
This pair of Siemens ECC82 tubes originate from the German army (Bundesamt für Wehrtechnik und Beschaffung (BWB)). They are manufactured by the former Telefunken Neuhaus tube plant: Funkwerk Erfurt in Germany. The tubes of this plant are of excellent quality and hence Telefunken, Siemens and many major tube brands sold these tubes under their own brand name. The tubes have rounded plates with 3 holes plates.
The properties of this tube are widely regarded. Please have a look on the many threads on the web for more information.
The tubes have NOS test values that match the factory specification very precisely and they have balanced systems.
