This is a GEC EF86 from Mike at www.kcanostubes.com which was a gift from a friend of mine, Terry Guder in Chicago. I need to get some my old Sovteks to show as an example how far from EF86 spec they are .... you would not even think of them as the same tube. As a side note .... all NOS EF86 tubes are very very close and all right in the proper spec range. I do not care if it is GEC, Mullard, Tesla, Dario Miniwatt or whatever. They are all great. Like various 12AX7s, they do have their own tonal signature but all of them are are darn nice. If you think two different ones sound the same and they look the same remember that Mullard produced a lot of these for other tube folks who put their own name on them .... just as they did with the GZ34 / 5AR4 rectifiers.
