12AU7 / ECC82 Tube Types
One of the most commonly found driver tubes found in push-pull tube audio power amplifiers is the 12AU7 tube. As well, this tube's low gain make it a great choice for tube preamps in hi-fi stereo systems. They are found less often in instrument tube amps but Ampeg is one manufacturer who has used them for years as drivers for their SVT bass guitar amps. Other common names for this tube are ECC82 and ECC802 and the European special-quality E82CC and E182CC. Names found in military and industrial applications are 5814, 6189, and 7316.
