Rolling tubes in a Project Tube Box S?
This is the first tube anything I have owned and am keen to try some different valves when funds allow. It has 2 x ECC83 (12AX7) in it as stock, not sure which brand. I've read there is much better out there but have no idea what I am looking for. So is the ECC83/12AX7 like the socket/tube type? What is the ECC83 part and what is the 12AX7 part? Is that the only type of tube that will fit/work in this device? I've read that Genalex Gold Lion are a decent option, is that a decent brand? This stuf
You've made the right choice with the start of your ubiquitous 9-pin miniature dual triode journey.
Just confirming the 12AX7 nomenclature is the US designation for the same tube that in Europe is known as the ECC83.
Sound signatures vary in valves made by different manufacturers both vintage and new. The critical question is what sound signature are you after, what genre of music do you like the most and in what role are the valves being used.
Just so you're
