On the left is the long and short plate Mullard 12ax7. On the right is the smooth and ribbed plate Telefunken 12ax7. In the middle is a newer Sylvania 12ax7. I know Sylvania made different 12ax7s but I've never listened carefully to any of them. Back in the day we used mostly Mullards and Telefunkens. I do remembering liking the black plate RCA 12ax7s.I don't use 12ax7s in my system these days. I can sub a 12ax7 for a 6sl7 in my phono pre using this adapter if I want/need a little more gain.
