Re: They all said 7K7 @ 250 anode and -8.5 bias

As other posters have stated, the 13D5 is a 12AU7/ECC82, just a different designation due to certain criteria (unkown to me) met by the Brimar factory. It and 12AU7s can be used as either a 12.6V or 6.3V heater depending on how the tube sockets are wired. With the 2 heater segments wired in parallel it is 6.3V, with the 2 heater segments wired in series it is 12.6V. Since it can be used either way, and is dependant on how the equipment tube socket is wired, you won't damage your bud's pre.
