RE: 7058 or 12AX7

According to the rca tube manual, the 7058 is for mobile use, with 13 v heaters. That would mean 12.6 would work fine. Also pin 9 is shown as IC or internally connected which may mean it could be connected to a shield. So, to use it instead of the ax7 would mean you need a 12.6v heater connected to pins 4 and 5 and pin 9 unused. I am not certain if the other parts of your circuit would need "fine tuning" but it would work if you did the pinout changes. regards, Dak
