I purchased this tube for use in a HB Mighty-5TH (Overkill, I know. It was meant as an experiment)

The packaging was solid and there was no doubt that it would be undamaged. Bonus: It looked really good

Stock, the head sounded hollow and weak with very little low end through my custom Celestion Ten-30 cabinet. It also had crackling noises when turning the knobs.

Replacement was a charm and literally took ten seconds. I also replaced the power tube with a Sovtek one.

Instantly after turning it on I noticed that it sounded full, crisp and defined in the cleans (where I'm usually at) and like an absolute monster (for 5w) when turning the knob. Of course, not like a premium amp into a 4x12", but still very convincing. I had never expected a 5w to be that good through a Ten-30. And as the amp warmed up I was convinced. This was a experiment well worth the time, effort and money.

Pros:
- Quality and insane sound
- Packaging and first impression
- Will upgrade the sound of of cheap amps considerably

Cons:
- Pricey if you need multiple

This is an investment, but a good one.

replaced original tubes on Engl Blackmore. Same nice sound, so far so good.

Good choice

Replaced stock V1 in a JCA50h, along with an Engl select in V2. The result is much less hum on the high gain channel. Shipment was immediate (thank you!), and packaging was great. The tube was worth the extra cost. Good work Engl!

Vous hésitez entre une lampe à 10€ et une lampe à 35€ ? C’est compréhensible. Vous connaissez l'’histoire de Fernand Raynaud, les œufs cassés et les œufs pas cassés ? Les œufs cassés sont moins chers, oui mais ils sont cassés quoi …
Je vais enfoncer une porte ouverte. Ce qui est plus cher parce que de FQ first qualité se ressent lorsqu’on l’utilise. Non seulement ça s’entend, mais ça se ressent quand on joue. Plus de gain, les harmoniques viennent plus facilement. J'ai été obligé de revoir les réglages, c'est plutôt bon signe. C’est aussi dans le souffle qu’on voit la différence, j’ai même eu la tentation de retirer le noise gate sur le high gain. Si on veut de la qualité et se faire plaisir, c’est par là qu’il faut aller.
Dernier point, c’est en se faisant plaisir en jouant qu’on fait progresser son jeu. Alors … vous prenez lesquels ? Les œufs cassés à 10€ ou les pas cassés à 35€ ?
