Hi,
which of them should be preferred ? Best sound ?
I like to use them in a DAC output stage and know they are more or less exchangeable.
Also how do I see if a plate is smooth or what :confused: :confused: :confused:

Hi,
Since it's for a DAC I'd prefer the ECC88 based on electrical properties.

A smooth plate is usually rather long and completely flat, like a sheet of paper if you like.
That's a term often used to distinguish between those and the more commom ribbed type plates.
TFK used both types for their ECC83s, some Philips ECC81/2/3s where built with smooth plates as well.
Nowadays the only manufacturer I know of building their small triodes like this is EI in former Yugoslavia.
Cheers,;) |
