They're not harsh and to my ears sound warm and musical. Great seller, highly recommended! ## Features - Performance which surpasses NOS original in all areas. Big, warm and very musical.

Great seller, highly recommended! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ TUNG SOL = The best IMHO *by T***C on February 1, 2020* What can I say.... as a Tube Amp lover, I have tried MANY tubes. I love several types and "brands" for various amps and situations / musical styles. Something I can tell you beyond a shadow of a doubt, is that anytime my amps are loaded with TUNG SOL Tubes, they come even more "to life" than they were with other good brands. It's seriously situational, but here is an example. I have these preamp tubes loaded in a Plexi clone, sounds amazing, but was not what I was looking for in that amp, so I swapped out 2 of the 3 preamp tubes for SOVTEK to see if that was better, and it was, BUT the TUNG SOL was in 1st position, influencing the tone the most.. An amazing combo! BUT, most recently, I bought a JOYO BantAmp METEOR to test out sounds on, as I was curious, They run on a TUBE preamp, and a solid state power amp. Stock tubes were great, but I knew it could be "better". I had several Electro Harmonix laying around, 12AX7H.. Tried them, sounded even better than stock, which again was NOT bad at all, but this was better. I thought I had a spare TUNG SOL somewhere, but I didn't, so I ordered this one.. Once I swapped out the Electro Harmonix one (which again, was amazing already!) The sound seemed to transform into exactly what I was looking for. Were the differences HUGE and way different? No... not at all, but what it DID have, was a warmer, but punchier sound to it. I thought maybe it was just me wanting the TUNG SOL to be better, but I swapped back and forth, and even recorded them, and the results were the same, the TUNG SOL won hands down for my personal tastes. I will ALWAYS run TUNG SOL tubes as my primaries, they are just excellent all the way around for what I am trying to achieve. That PLEXI also has TUNG SOL power amp tubes, and let me tell ya, she's a beast! Don't hesitate, buy these and enjoy your tone. The seller is also top notch! ## Frequently Bought Together - Tung-Sol 12AX7 - JJ Electronics Amplifier Tube (T-EL84-JJ) - New In Box Gain Matched Pair JJ Electronics Tesla 12AX7 ECC83-S Vacuum Tubes --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.nz/products/3270626-tung-sol-12ax7](https://www.desertcart.nz/products/3270626-tung-sol-12ax7) --- *Product available on Desertcart New Zealand* *Store origin: NZ* *Last updated: 2026-06-01*
