Tony is correct. I sell Tesla type ECC-83s to the

functional equivalent ( except better ) of a 12AX7 dual triode.
It's not really an "audio tweak" valve, at least not in the UK. It's a
bog standard entry-level dual triode used in the preamp stage of just
about any guitar amp you care to look at ;-)
The fact that audiophiles love them seems pretty funny. Us amp builders
love them for their second-harmonicy crunch...
