Vacuum Tubes

The first electronic amplification of sound was done with Vacuum Tubes. We have pre-amp, power and rectifier vacuum tubes among other types in New Old Stock from the golden era of American & European manufacturing as well as current production tubes from today.
Vacuum Tube - 5Y3GT, Tube Amp Doctor, Premium Selected, Rectifier
The Tube Amp Doctor 5Y3GT / 6087 is a small bottle rectifier designed to perform closely to the original rectifier tubes used in many 1950s tweed amplifiers. This rectifier offers high reliability due to its rugged construction and the Tube Amp Doctor Premium Selection process. The TAD 5Y3GT is a great tube for vintage style sag compression.

Vacuum Tube - EL84-STR, Redbase, Tube Amp Doctor
The all new TAD-EL84-STR Redbase brings together the best of both - the famous EL84-Cz and the EL84M. We opted for the thickest glass possible and the heaviest construction available, just like the Russian EL84M, and combined these features with the sonically most promising cathode plate options, in order to meet and exceed the tonal quality of the EL84-Cz especially with regard to its linearity over the entire frequency range. Finally we added the gold grid wire in order to improve overall reliability. The sound can be described as very harmonic in the middle and treble frequencies, without adding too much power to the bass. The result is the best EL84 in current production. Note: Due to its diameter of 22.5mm, the TAD EL84-STR does not fit into older Marshall DSL401 made till week #20 in 2014 and the UK made VOX AC15 TBX amplifiers from the same time period.

Vacuum Tube - ECC81 / 12AT7, Classic Series, Psvane
The Psvane ECC81 is a high quality, medium gain, dual triode. This tube has a noval base and is praised for its lush and detailed sound. The Psvane 12AT7 works well in any ECC81 / 12AT7 position. The Psvane Classic Series is focused on the reproduction of popular vacuum tubes found in classic audio equipment. When designing the Classic Series, Psvane collected the most sought-after NOS tubes and analyzed each element of their construction, incorporating the most effective manufacturing techniques to produce stable tubes with excellent sound. Whether used in guitar amplifiers or hifi stereo systems, the Psvane Classic Series vacuum tubes excel in all applications. Psvane has been producing high quality vacuum tubes since 2011. The Psvane team originally formed in Shuguang’s high-end tube division but eventually split off to form their own brand.

Vacuum Tube - 5881WXT, Sovtek
The Sovtek 5881WXT is the same as the 5881 but with a full size base for easy installation in vintage amp designs. The Sovtek 5881 delivers a warm, round tone that "sweetens" any vintage or modern guitar amp design. Built to rigid military standards, the 5881 will tolerate higher voltages than any other 6L6. In fact, they're frequently used as replacements for the old 7027 model in vintage Ampegs. Extremely consistent from piece to piece. The Sovtek 5881 has a heater voltage of 6.3 volts at 0.88 amperes.

Vacuum Tube - 12AX7 / ECC83-WA, Tube Amp Doctor, Premium Selected
The new Tube Amp Doctor premium selected 12AX7 /ECC83-WA is a low-noise and low microphonic version of the 12AX7. The ECC83-WA Premium Selected has a balanced tone with a notable emphasis of the mids. The overall linear sound offers great string attack and chord separation. The low end is well defined. The result is a tone that works well in both modern amps but also vintage guitar amplifiers. If the ECC83-WA is used in hi-fi audio amplifiers, the tube adds a musical clarity and presence to the signal. The new TAD™ ECC83-WA is a miniature, high-mu twin triode, selected and recommended for guitar amps to improve overall responsiveness and dynamics. Great for guitar clean tones with a distinct pick attack and pronounced upper mids to cut through every mix. Crunchy tones still feature a very good string separation which is also ideal for fully saturated sounds and modern amplifiers with a tight bass response.
