Description
This is a pair of Telefunken ECC82 made in Berlin Germany.
The properties of this tube are widely known. I refer to the many threads on the web for more information. The smooth plates version of the Telefunken ECC82 a scarce. The codes on the tubes indicate that the tubes are manufactured in 1967 and 1966 in the Berlin plant in Germany. The tubes have the typical smooth long plates structure of the Telefunken ECC82 with the diamond bottom. They show no sign of use and have NOS test values that match the factory specification very precisely and balanced systems.
Excellent valve, low noise, very smooth extended highs, very good in phono stages.
Sonics
The long smooth plates TELEFUNKEN ECC82 is known for its balanced, warm and smooth sounding with liquid midrange, recommended! The smooth plates version is typical warmer and more full sounding than the ribbed plate version!
