All user reviews for the General Electric 12AX7WA

I use this in my tube guitar amps in the first and second floors preamp and phase in some but for this position, they must be balanced. I have other NOS tubes, not referenced das Audiofanzine.

The exact denomination is January 12AX7WA. This is exactly the same as the Philips talked about below, which is bringing the European ECC83 label. At the time, many brands working together, especially GE, RCA and Philips. This is how General Electric and Philips have built this tube. January means of a tube to military standards, that is to say more reliable than others. W is a particular feature here tube more reliable military and therefore A is a specific reference to the silent tubes.

Never being completely satisfied lamps current production, which to me always too this and too little of it, the discovery of NOS has been a godsend. Their prices are always an investment may seem unjustified by those who have not tried but considering the long lifetime (often decades), the scarcity of microphone units and the sound made away from stuff Today, even the most expensive, I think that ultimately, we found it easily. It is interesting to read a little history tubes to understand the interest of NOS (New Old Stock: never used).

Especially for use in guitar amps, this tube is very interesting. Beyond its regular bandwidth and its full well it produces, are found at prices more than correct. In the U.S. market, I found the same price and sometimes cheaper than some Groove Tube and other Golden Dragon.
