Nice !

Used them in V2 of my Randall as suggested, and it worked pretty well. It didn't change the overall sound that much compared to the stock Electro-Harmonix, but it gave it a bit more warmth.

Would definitely recommend it !

Great tube
lantian 13.06.2018
Bought this tube for my taga tha500 hybrid heaphone tube amp. Definetly miles ahead of the stock 12ax7 chinese tube that came with it. But it is not intended for hifi use, it is meant for guitar amps and that is where it shines. On headphone or speaker tube amp, it gives kind of a overdrive sound to verything once you pass certain volume level. Still good, but not optimal for hifi.

Phase Inverter

This tube replaced a beaten up Electro Harmonix 12AX7 in the Phase Inverter position of an Epiphone Blues Custom.

I needed a durable tube to be able to withstand the high voltage of the PI and so far it does fine. I only have it for about 2 weeks so I will edit my review in the future.

It is also important to mention that Thomann delivered it to me securely, carefully packaged and it traveled a bit, so dont be afraid the transportation if you want to buy your tubes online

good and solid
Anonymous 31.07.2016
I replaced all my 12ax7 tubes from my marshall TSL 601 with these TAD ECC83 tubes the only thing I really notice in the tone is that they made it slightly warmer which gave the marshall a much nicer clean tone for blues music which I love so a big plus one for me

(but don't worry the treble is at 12 o clock so plenty of room to make it a bit more brighter for you country players).

The build quality seems to be good and no sign of failure after 25 hours of playing so all is well very happy with the product i recommend trying them out
