I've made a list of the ECC83/12AX7 valves I have for sale. The boxes show some test data at gm=1.6 as per AVO manual, but it looks a bit like the tubes were tested in circuit and the anode voltages marked down for each half. Going by the markings on the boxes the "new" voltage looks like it was 60V. There's one where "new" looks like 100 but that must have been a different circuit. These were tested over 10 years ago and I can't remember how they were tested. Here's what I have. I haven't worked out prices yet - that will take me a while. I also don't know what the unmarked valves are - could even be Mullards with markings rubbed off.
Anyway, PM me if interested and we can take it further. Andy

All valves sold by Philips were silver ink marked at the bottom of the glass - the combination of letters and numbers about 3-4mm high. They even marked sourced valves - I have some ECC83 that are branded CVC but were bought from Philips as the marking is there, but says that they were made by Ei. The Philips codes include symbols for Siemens, Thorn, Tungsram, Japan, all their own individual sites etc. etc. etc. There are something like 60 different source codes.

The silver ink codes can be removed, but it is not simple, they are fused into the glass.
 
Dynaco/Telefunken ECC83 now sold.

Others available. I haven't priced the bottom ones - still trying to identify them.....

GEC ECC83s go for silly money as far as I can see, so I'll have to price those carefully.
