Best Sounding EL84 - 7189

It's Telefunken 7189 NOS if you can find it. They have incredibly long life so there are certainly used good ones can be found.

Thanks Czarivey

Are the Telefunken 7189 NOS you talk about these:

Tungsram EL84's (labeled Ei/Yugoslavia with Ei boxes)

One of my favorite sellers has these Ei labeled Tungsram EL84s for $42 each. Not too bad but I will have to sell some stuff to get them.

No the ones I mean clearly Telefunken 7189. They're great ones for guitar amps as well. Simply undistructable with very solid presentation in any application.

Digging up a old thread.  Reading up on El84's.  Have a Heathkit 151 restored by Sam Kim and it's marvelous.
