Hey guys, :cool:

I heard from somewhere that ECC186 is a special quality version of ECC82 (with longer life for computer application).

Is this true? :confused:
Has anybody tried this tube in the place of ECC82?
I've got 3 PHILIPS ECC186 in boxes, and they are all labeled, SQ (Labeled 'Special Quality' on the bottom of SQ).
