Product Summary
With strong performance and pristine condition, this special pair of vintage tubes are priced to sell! Many tube enthusiasts began their journey with Bugle Boy tubes, right here at Soundlumia, and we believe that's the best choice they have ever made just like the audiophile friends among us.
Sound Qualities
You get the "textbook" Telefunken Holland midrange presentation that is transparent, natural and expansive, with a slight touch of warmth that illuminates your musical world. The top end is super airy, smooth and nicely extended like one would expect from the best Siemens tubes. Vocals are intimate, sweet and forward (but not right in your face) and that always reminds me how the vocals sound on the best Mullard tubes. Bass is deep and well controlled and the accuracy feels very similar to the high end German ECC82's (Siemens, Telefunken.)
Professional Sound Evaluation
The pair worked wonderfully and sounded terrific in our professional studio setup for monitoring.
- Input: Cambridge Audio CXC V2 dedicated CD transport + Schiit Audio Bifrost 2 Multibit DAC
- Amplification: Woo Audio WA7 Fireflies (3rd gen) Balanced Headphone Amplifier
- Output: Focal Clear MG Pro open-back headphones
Our full tube sound review was written 100% based on the actual listening experience while this pair of tubes were running in the system described above.
Professional testing & sound evaluation
This set was tested and certified by RoeTest V11 tester with the following result:
Tube 1:
Measured transconductance (GM): 2.61/2.76 mA/V - 97%/102% (100% = 2.7 mA/V)
Measured plate current (IA): 5.957/6.377 mA - 99%/106% (100% = 6 mA)
Tube 2:
Measured transconductance (GM): 2.69/2.69 mA/V - 100%/100% (100% = 2.7 mA/V)
Measured plate current (IA): 6.527/6.122 mA - 109%/102% (100% = 6 mA)
NO shorts, leakage or gas. NO noise or microphonics.
Curve trace is also included in the original RoeTest report.
Appearance & cosmetic condition
We treasure this pair because the pristine cosmetic condition the two tubes are in - over 90% of the paint is intact. The identical Heerlen date codes etched on glass are perfectly visible on both tubes:
⊿7G4 (⊿= Heerlen, Holland, 7 = 1967, G = July, 4 = 4th week of the month)
⊿7G4 (⊿= Heerlen, Holland, 7 = 1967, G = July, 5 = 5th week of the month)
Packaging
This pair of tubes will be packaged in the Original Telefunken tube boxes.
