"... The 1960's Telefunken early ECC801S with 'klingarm' (low noise) represent the full expression of Telefunken's best achievement for a 12AT7 / 6201. To have these tubes is really someting rare & special! The richness of the music reproduced surpass any other previous attempt of any other tube ever made. While listing to Miles Davis SKETCHES OF SPAIN with Gil Evans I can hear, see, and feel Miles sitting on a stool in a section in my listening room, a trio of trumpet, trombone and flute behind him. As if the members of the band are right in the room with you! The dense textural details and markings for dynamics are performed precisely as recorded and reproduced so that all the interweaving parts emerge clearly. The depth of musical emotion is distinctly audible with every detail of the pure orchestral fabric as I'm not hearing my preamp, amp, or speakers anymore, just pure music, the conduit to a higher musical realm, as if there is no hardware at all! "Miles above" and Simply beautiful and well worth the price for the 'klingarm' SUPER LOW-NOISE factory tubes!...worlds better than the newer 1980's commercial series by "miles"

Extremely RARE Telefunken <> ECC801S issue Made in ULM!  1960's 9-digit serial with 1960's decade ULM made NOS ECC801S are considered extinct and searched for because of the rarity of this type of tube made in the ULM factory - this PERFECT Matched & Balanced Pair was made in the 1960's. These are PERFECT for 12AT7 audiophile preamp and mic applications too being  LOW NOISE suitable for even microphones! 'klingarm' (low microphonics). They have the Diamond (Rhombus < > tilted square) with the numbers in the bottom of the glass tube between the pins.  Same low noise matched triodes construction equivalent to the ECC803S specifications - an ECC801S is to a ECC81/12AT7 what a ECC803S is to a ECC83 / 12AX7!

"...the proof of the (sonic) pudding!..."

1960's NOS ECC801S
"... The Tele ECC801S is the HOLY GRAIL of all 12AT7 tubes! I can hear a huge increase in 3-D sonic holography with the ECC801S / 6201 over the ECC81 / 12AT7. The ECC801S is the most accurate faithful sound reproducer ever made. The midrange on the ECC801S is in a class by itself, when you hear a vocalist or horn its like the singer/instrument is in the room with you, it puts shivers down my spine, and evokes emotions that are not only warm and fuzzy but therapeutic for the mind, body and soul..."
