Amperex Bugle Boy ECC88/6DJ8 Tubes (PAIR)

 Staged Ring Getter - TESTS NOS

These Amperex Bugle Boy ECC88 tubes were made in Holland. Considered by many to be one of the best sounding ECC88/6DJ8 ever made. They are very quiet and sweet sounding with extremely low microphonics. This is an excellent TESTS NOS matching pair with very good to excellent original white Bugle Boy. They have been Triple Matched on an Amplitrex AT1000 for Mutual Conductance, Emissions and Gain. Tube gain is a critical component for matching driver & preamp tubes and a measurement that can't be provided by a vintage tester.
