ECC83S Gold Pin (12AX7)
Price range: $37.00 through $41.50
The Gold Pin JJ ECC83S is designed to be a premium version of the classic JJ ECC83S. The internal components go through additional selection and processing during assembly. After working with these tubes for several years we can confirm they do test more consistently and sound noticeably different than the standard ECC83S. The Gold Pin tubes have a very open and lush character. When overdriven they have a very smooth and singing tone that’s less gritty and less aggressive than the original ECC83S.
Also available with current Balanced triodes for phase inverter use and Balanced and Matched in pairs or multiples.
All our preamp tubes are stringently tested for noise and microphonics using Amplitrex testers driving an external amp. There is no extra charge for low noise and microphonics testing like with other tube vendors. If a tube does not pass our strict performance criteria it’s tossed or sent back to JJ Electronic for evaluation.
