selected preamp tube (RT046)
The new TAD 12BH7A is an alternative for the TAD 12BH7A-STR in a more compact design (less high) and slightly higher gain. The mechanical built quality is outstanding and grants super low noise performance, ruggedness and long life. The TAD 12BH7APremium Selected (balanced) provides great balance and strong current which is the perfect recommendation for a dynamic driver stage for output tubes like 300B, 2A3, 6550, KT88, KT120 , KT150 and certainly further models.
In guitar amplifiers the TAD 12BH7A is often used as outputtube in 5 Watt amplifiers like the populr Blackstar HT-5 series, Marshall Origin 5 and the Hughes & Kettner Tubemeister 5
