Not quite Kevin, the output valves are different and specially selected.

I assumed they were all E88CC as I saw 4 in Oli’s photos.
What is the valve requirement in the Ultime?

No wonder you bought the wrong valves!

the RT 12ax7 turned up quick from Bertrand in France. The Brimar yellow T is still king here beating the EI so lets see how the RT compare's  |

<button disabled="" class="c-attachment-insert--linked o-btn--sm">Attachment Deleted</button> Here are my 12AX7S valves for the BB3. How many is too many? Show off lol  Those Belvu I linked to are Mazda valves, made in France. Possibly very good 12AX7S valves…. Only 2 hours left on the auction, if anybody is feeling flush. |

This is the wrong place to discuss the BBU. 😉

We don’t want someone getting confused and buying the wrong valves, do we?

I've already told you to stop this Kevin, it is only encouraging those with weak wills to reduce the size of their bank accounts. |

Nice, but no use in a BB3.  |

My mistake then, but I'm sure I've seen these mentioned somewhere

There's just too many phonostages being talked about on here, it's curdling my brain.

I found Tungsrams to be a bit of a sleeping giant as far a valves go. Everyone goes for Teles at first look but Tungsrams are just as good ime, and cheaper. More dynamic I think, if that's what you want.
Just taken delivery of Tungsram factory selected PCC88s with the red numbers on. Looking forwards to trying them out 🙂
