Vintage genuine Amperex 12AU7 / ECC82 vacuum tube manufactured in Holland at the renowned Philips Heerlen factory.

Etched factory/date codes:
GF8
△ 9E1

Authentic Heerlen-made tube identified by the etched triangle factory code and classic orange Amperex labeling.

Features:

  • Short gray plates
  • Halo getter
  • Orange Amperex print
  • Made in Holland
  • 9-pin miniature dual triode

Tube presents very well with strong silver getter flash, clean pins, and solid original labeling with some expected wear from age and use.

Tested on my TV-7A/U tube tester:
99 / 98
(minimum = 56)

Tube tests exceptionally strong. Not otherwise tested. Guaranteed not DOA.

These Dutch-made Amperex ECC82 / 12AU7 tubes are highly regarded by audiophiles and musicians for their warm, detailed sound and excellent musical character. Popular for vintage hi-fi equipment, tube preamps, headphone amplifiers, guitar amplifiers, and tube rolling applications.

Please review all photos carefully for cosmetic condition and details.
