Questions about tubes and gear that glows. FAQ

RE: Learned something new everyday....

Most is tubes I owned were E88CC, or E188CC
THe Siemens E88CC A frame are good, but I do not know what people mean about A1 vs A6 numbers, mine are A1, whet whether that is good or not ?

The Mulland I have are actually RTC made my Mullard and are E188CC, these sound war,er to me, but not as dynamic as the Siemens.

I understand the E identification much better then the all numbers, which I think is USA?

I think Philips SQ are the same as Amperex PQ when made in Holland? Generally the older one are better, but the orange label are very fine.
