Northern Electric 6SL7 Preamp Vacuum Tube
The new Northern Electric 6SL7 vacuum tube has a huge sound-stage that is wide but remains accurate. It is never bloated sounding and never sibilant. Fantastic dynamics. This 6SL7 preamp tube has low noise floor which helps provide excellent clarity and detail. Plenty of low-end slam.
The Northern Electric 6SL7 preamp tube is made with the highest quality materials. The Northern Electric 6SL7 vacuum tube is a triple-mica design and has ribbed plates. As well, extra support rods are used to further help reduce noise and microphonics. From the glass bottle to the gold plated pins, everything is designed to give you unsurpassed audio quality.
The Northern Electric 6SL7 tube is a fantastic upgrade for Willsenton R8 integrated amplifiers (along with the Northern Electric 6SN7 vacuum tube). Also great for Cary mono-blocks, the Woo Audio WES headphone amplifier, and many Icon Audio amps, just to name a few. Note: The base is slightly larger in diameter than some other common 6SL7, measuring 1 5/16" (33.25mm).
Northern Electric had a rich history of producing high quality audio products and vacuum tubes in Canada. We are now re-introducing this classic brand and bringing to you the highest quality tubes possible.
