FWIW…the best I’ve ever tried the New production “Tung Sols” EL 34 B. It is a superb tube…and made my musical reference RM9 MK2 sound glorious.
Siemens EL 34
I came across Siemens EL 34 tubes for sale at RAM tubes.
My understanding is that these are 1970's tubes manufactured at the old Telefunkin factory.
I have heard conflicting reports of the sonic character of this era Telefunkin tube. On one extreme warm and large sound stage. On the other end, thin and a bit bright.
Has anyone heard that era Siemens/ Telefunkin EL 34?
