What are people saying?
- “The most liquid of all the tubes, It lets the highs just
roll off. Very low-noise. I am in love with the liquidness of this tube. Not as
dynamic as the Raytheon, but superior with female vocals and horns.”
- “They have a “Rich and smooth tone with quiet background””
- They are for tube amps

More information:
The tube equivalent to the 5751 tube type is the 7025 tube.
While the 5751 and the 12AX7 are not identical, they are often interchangeable
in many applications. The 5751 is a lower gain version of the 12AX7, offering
about 70% of the gain of a 12AX7. This makes the 5751 ideal for use in guitar
amplifiers and other audio equipment where a lower gain is desirable, as it can
provide a cleaner sound with less distortion. It's important to note that while
these tubes are often interchangeable, the specific requirements and
characteristics of the equipment should be considered when making a
substitution.
