The JJ E88CC Gold pin preamp tube is a great alternative to ECC88, 6922 and 6DJ8 vacuum tubes for preamplifiers if you are looking for a warmer, smoother sound.

From Wall Of Sound: "...not the ultimate in resolution and control but damn, they are musical. I defy anyone to put on their favorite toe tapping tune and keep their foot still while listening to these tubes."

The E88CC tube type is equivalent to the North American 6922 / 6DJ8 tube and can be used in any 6922, 6DJ8 or E88CC/ECC88 circuit.

JJ E88CC / 6922 Gold | Great tubes for any type of music!

by

Gear: U Turn Orbit Plus, Schiit Valhalla 2, Adam F5 monitors / Dayton Sub-1000 / Beyer DT990s (600ohm)

Bottom line here, these JJ-E88CC-G tubes are fantastic. The Valhalla 2 is a solid preamp out of the box with the 6N1Ps it comes with, however I couldn't help but feel like it smoothed out the signal a little too much, to the point that the highest and lowest frequencies were a bit hazy and washed out of the mix.

As soon as I threw the JJs onto the preamp I noticed a pronounced difference in both the volume and resolution of high frequency range especially. Texturally, everything is so much more refined. The improvement on bass is slightly less pronounced, but still appreciable. It packs a punch but is much tighter.

Perhaps it's not a life-changing difference in quality, but you'll have a hard time figuring out a better way to improve your system for only $60.

Sound great in my Valhalla 2

I got these to replace the stock tubes in my Schiit Valhalla 2. They definitely sound warmer and less shouty than the stock ones. Overall, they make the amp sound much more musical and pleasant to listen to.

My only complaint is that the tubes are a bit more microphonic than I had hoped.

Tried these in The Schiit Audio Lyr1 and they were quite poor performing. Later used them in a Schiit Valhalla 2 and they are Superb!

Go Figure.

Tube Rolling My Valhalla 2 Headphone Amp

Replaced the stock 6N1P tubes (a solid performer) that Schiit Audio includes with the Valhalla 2 amp with a pair of these w/balanced triodes. Most notable improvement through my system came in the bottom end through my Sennheiser HD700s. Worthwhile investment in my opinion.

I already have the regular JJ E88CC tube and decided to get the Gold (with balanced triodes) version and it is a pretty substantial upgrade. Well worth the price difference.
