New Electro-Harmonix 12AX7 ECC83 GOLD PINS Vacuum Tubes - Matched Pair

We only sell factory fresh tubes and NOT seconds as we are an authorized dealer for New Sensor (EHX) and JJ

This is the same tube as the EHX 12AX7 with a few big differences. The pins are plated with gold to prevent corrosion and to protect the pins. The pins will last for life. EHX also selects the best tubes (well balanced, best test data etc) for their gold line. The EHX 12AX7 has become a standard, known for its high gain and excellent mids and bass. It has a spiral wound filament to heIp cut down on noise and hum just like the vintage 7025 or 12AX7A tubes. These are one of the best deals around, you get rich tone for less!

Testing and/or Matching

We test and/or match our tubes by Gm & Plate Current using a state of the art digital Maxi-Matcher tube tester. The Maxi-Matcher simulates a real circuit and tests tubes in real-world conditions. We also check our tubes for other issues like shorts on calibrated and vintage tube testers. We match our tubes +/- 5% with an overall tolerance of 10%.

While we do screen for noise and microphonics, even the best tube testers are quite bad at finding these faults. The only real test is with your ears. We guarantee that our tubes will be free of noise or microphonics but please be aware that there isn't a whole lot we can do to ensure your tube won't be. To combat this issue, we are quite liberal in accepting returns for these reasons.
