Did you mean ECC83's?
from Luxman
"We married an input stage of two JJ Electronic ECC83 miniature double triodes to a push-pull output with four JJ Electronic EL84 pentodes".
Dipping my toes into EL84 tubes
As I am researching amplifiers, it occurred to me I don’t have experience with el34 (though I have heard a Leben 600), el84 which people seem to like, 300b or any of the major tubes really.
so based on the seemingly overwhelming love people have for EL84, I’ve been looking for cheap but decent integrated or power amp based on EL84. Used is fine and under $1k USD. If you’ve heard it and thought it was pretty darn good for the money let’s hear it.

I might add the great sounding ST35 from GetDynaco.com with great build quality from Kenny Russell. Kenny will build a standard part list ST or all out assault as I have. Great tone with extreme clarity using a matched quad of Groove Tubes EL84. All this produced with a captive lamp wire power cord. Absolute sacrilege. Absolutely dead silent on 100db horns and slotted between the FW F3 and F5 is every bit as satisfying. No affiliation with GetDynaco.com. |
https://ankaudiokits.com/product/el84-l1-v2-integrated-amplifier/ A bit above budget but if you decide to think longer term, if have always thought AK kits look excellent. I would really enjoy building one. They also have C core options with superb quality parts at a much higher (but reasonable) price. Kits currently 10% off. Take a look |
Thanks. It was a fun build. Definitey a "do it once, do it right" scenario.- 39 posts total
