RE: Philips E180CC (alleged eq. to 12AT7)--anyone know it?

Posted by ecline6 on October 10, 2014 at 23:12:21:
The E180CC is almost identical to the 7062. I have many Amperex 7062's and they are a very good sounding tube.
The E180CC/7062 is much more like a 12AV7 than a 12AY7.
The Philips E180CC is more analytical in my amps than the Amperex 7062 and less to my taste than the 7062 .... but less microphonic.
