Instead 6GH8A will be possible ECF-82/6U8A


Hello Folks!

I receive a few "Ulton" branded ECF-82/6U8A drives, which I want to be 100% sure that CAN BE...?, used instead the "Original" fitted 6GH8A tube in my also Gifted Dynaco Stereo 70 Series 2 power?

Your expertise advice or opinion will be extremely helpful.

Thanks very much ann al the best listening to all of you!

They are very similar but not identical and the amps will more than likely sound different - but should work with no problem (no guarantees here). The 6GH8A's were not the kit "originals", the 7199's were; but because they became scarce the sockets were rewired to accept the 6GH8A. These tubes are still available and are IMO the best driver tubes for the st-70.
