I started sorting my tube stash since the move and holy cripes do I have a lot of tubes, these are all duplicates that I thought I'd offer here.

Valvo ECC83/12AX7 pair Made in Holland, short plate, halo getter (same as Bugle Boys)

I65/delta 1L2
I65/delta 4K5


These came to me described as "strong" I don't have any readings to ensure how closely matched they are, but in listening to them they sound wonderful and no issues.

Because of the lack of formal testing I am selling these cheaper than usual and I will take them back within, let's say 14 days, if the buyer discovers they aren't as described. These are excellent sounding tubes with the typical 3D sound Heerlen Holland tubes are known for.

$40/pr shipped and paypal'd


1961 Amperex Bugle Boy 12AT7 (ECC81) made in France (identical to Heerlen made) BB's are specially screened for low noise. In white boxes, closely matched, same manufacture code.

TK2/F1K4
TK2/F1K4


$45/pr shipped and paypal'd


and finally the Creme de La Creme

1967 Telefunken ECC801S considered the best 12AT7/ECC81 type ever made, super long life at 10,000 hours or more, 3 mica construction, very closely matched, in white boxes.

identical codes U zn 06

$120/pr shipped and paypal'd


Thanks for looking

    Well rats! My preamp manufacturer does not recommend the AT7's. So I guess I have to find some AU7's and variants..happen to have any?

    What brand(s) are you looking for? I have a few 12AU7 and varients I was planning on selling. I don't have anything to use them in anymore. You can wait until I list them if you'd like. It should be pretty soon.
    Unless, of course Brock has some to sell you.

    Sorry I guess I didn't make it clear in my post. I don't have any 12AU7 variants only 12AX and 12AT.

    Good luck

    I will sort out my tubes and start a for sale thread of some 12AU7 and variants. I have some Brimar 13D5's for example. Most are actual 12AU7's, but also have a pair of NOS Philips 7316's. Let me sort through them and I will start a for sale thread. Stay tuned.

    The Valvo 12AX7's are sold but pending payment

    The rest are still available. These Telefunkens are superb and if you don't want to spend that much Amperex BB's are excellent as well.
