ECC803S Balanced and Matched

Product Details

JJ ECC803S with fully Balanced triodes. If you need pairs or multiples of this tube matched to each other use this option. These tubes have symmetrical performance between triodes and are ideal where total consistency and repeat-ability from tube to tube is desired. The JJ ECC803S is a very long plate classic European style tube with thick mids and a little more high end than the ECC83S.

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.

The Balanced and Matched selection allows you to order multiple balanced tubes that also match each other. This is ideal where total symmetry and consistency is desired. This is most commonly requested for Audio applications where parallel signal paths exist (such as a stereo pre amp or drivers in a stereo power amp).

The JJ ECC803S utilizes an extremely long plate design. This makes them a bit more prone to mechanical noise/rattle in compact combo amps. We still use them regularly in larger combos such as the DRRI's, Twins, etc... and of course heads. If you want to use them in a compact combo application we recommend using one of our EuroDampers.

Tonally these tubes have an emphasis in the highs and upper mids. Compared to the ECC83S, these tubes are cleaner and spankier with more of a vintage vibe.
