Knob Classic Fluted ,Purple

Sonically similar to the "normal" JJ 12AX7, but the overall sound is "fuller" and "stronger" with a more powerful bass. Visually, compared to the normal JJ 12AX7, the long anode plates stand out, as well as a slightly higher current. Suits well in guitar and bass amps, but also in audio and high-end areas.

Note: Tubes equipped with long plates are commonly associated with a "warmer" or "richer" sound, whereas those with shorter plates tend to deliver a "tighter sound". However, tubes featuring long plates exhibit increased sensitivity to vibrations and mechanical disturbances, rendering them less ideal for critical applications.

Tube-Town 12AX7 / ECC83 Preamp-Tube

The TT12AX7 impresses with its fine and detailed reproduction of the highs, which is maintained even at high amplification levels. Due to a higher H3 part, the TT12AX7 sounds significantly cleaner than many other 12AX7/ECC83 tubes, which makes the bass range appear much tighter. We therefore especially recommend this tube for styles such as clean, crunch, and metal, where high amplification and clear transparency are required.

Application Notes

• Heater operation: The tube can be operated with 6.3V or 12.6V, depending on the circuit design.
• Grid resistors: It is recommended to use grid resistors of at least 1MΩ to ensure stable functionality.
• Coupling capacitors: Capacitors with low capacitance (typically 0.1µF) are recommended to minimize high-frequency interference.
