Here is a nice sounding, strong testing, matched pair of genuine Telefunken ECC83/12AX7 tubes; branded by Fisher. These are the legendary, earlier "ribbed" or "ladder" plate type(predating the smooth plate variety), with the molded diamond and date codes on the bottoms; plus these have decent looking "The Fisher" logo labelling. These test close and strong; as a collectible pair of phono grade Tellees should. On my trusty Hickok transconductance tube tester, a test result of 875 represents a 65% good tube and new tubes of this type typically yield 1300 or higher. The first tube, dated <14>, tests strongly at 1400 & 1400 and the second tube is also dated <14> which tested identically at 1400 & 1400. These tubes passed the Shorts and Gas tests plus show very strong Life Test results when testing filament voltage was lowered; confirming these are only lightly used tubes. These are some excellent, early vintage Telefunken 12AX7s. A brief listening test in my phono preamp verifies a very nice sounding, non-microphonic, matched pair of phono grade, genuine Telee tubes. This rare, matched pair of Telefunken ECC83 tubes will easily last many more decades. No tube boxes are included, but these will be very safely packed and will arrive safe and sound... This pair of tubes can be shipped anywhere in the USA for $7. via Priority Mail Small Flat Rate Box. Fastest shipment with usps postal money orders.
