Jp6l6 « False but true still exists. »
Published on 11/03/13 at 22:05How to distinguish the true from the false?
The real is Svetlana SED = C = EL34, built to Svetlana factory in St. Petersburg. This is probably the best EL34 production. It delivers the most accurate and most balanced sound that is bringing a lot of momentum. It is super strong.
Here we see the false, the gotcha. Built in Saratov, factories New Sensor (Sovtek and company). Its internal structure and its sound reproduction is unrelated to the original. It roughly corresponds to an Electro Harmonix.
Both lamps have the same name due to a crappy trade agreement with the USA. New Sensor is an American company that builds its tubes Russia, Saratov. The trade agreement in question prohibits fortunately these Svetlana, false which are not even copies of the original, to be marked and the SED = C = logo. It should be particularly attentive to these entries before you buy.
