Genalex - Gold Lion ECC82 / B749 | Unexpected sonic improvement
by Morcant -
The tubes arrived today and so being curious I installed them into my Prima Luna Dialogue Premium Integrated. I’ve never upgraded signal tubes before; was not expecting a lot of sonic difference. I’m pretty surprised now after 4 hours how much music I was missing before. Don’t get me wrong, the stock PL tubes get the job done. These GL-ECC82 are quite a bit more forward, resolved and have great stereo imaging. So far so good. I was on the fence to spend hideous money on Cifte, but talking to thetubestore helped me out. Overall a much needed upgrade. Very happy!
Genalex - Gold Lion ECC82 / B749 | Better then or at least as good as the telefunken NOS
by Mike klementovich -
Was strictly nos Telefunken when choosing the 12AU7...not any more. I bought 6 of these GL-ECC82, they are unbelievable.
Genalex - Gold Lion ECC82 / B749 | A giant step in the right direction
by D.J.
A small step forward in the tube domain is a giant step. So with that said, I was wanting to add some spice to a pair of Klark Teknik eqs to get them a little closer to my pultec EQP-1A. The stock tubes in the Klark were actually quite good (I was surprised), but the Gold Lions GL-ECC82 added extended lows that were a bit tighter, a more balanced mid section, and a little more air on top. The result was bigger, warmer, clearer sound...not by a lot, but a little goes a long way. Glad there is an alternative to the ridiculously priced NOS tubes.
Awesome

The Yaqin MC13S amplifier is a clean enough Class A amp. The stock tubes are pretty Average. Dropped a balanced pair of these into the push-pull stage (with a pair of ECC83's). Never mind burning in - the whole amp just opened up. Keepers.
