Title: ECC80 to replace a 12au7 in a ZP3? Post by P K on 06/05/14 at 15:37:33 Can you use a ECC80 to replace a 12au7 in a ZP3? I believe an ECC80 is considered a better tube design with lower distortion. I know that you can use it in a MT. Thanks, Peter |

Title: Re: ECC80 to replace a 12au7 in a ZP3? Post by P K on 06/06/14 at 22:38:10 I have gone back to the 12au7, but a ecc80 is a very interesting tube. I does produce more output, but as reported on the internet it has the following sound: More forward in your face, bright? Lower distortion than a 12au7? A better designed tube than a 12au7 (a 12ax7 is also a better designed than a 12au7?) |
