Tube Amp Doctor, EL84 STR - Redbase Premium Matched Single

The all-new TAD-EL84-STR REDBASE brings together the best of both - the famous EL84-Cz and the EL84M. We opted for the thickest glass possible and the heaviest construction available, just like the Russian EL84M, and combined these features with the sonically most promising cathode plate options, to meet and exceed the tonal quality of the EL84-Cz, especially about its linearity over the entire frequency range.

Finally, we added the gold grid wire to improve overall reliability. The sound can be described as very harmonic in the middle and treble frequencies, without adding too much power to the bass. The result is the best EL84 in current production.

Due to its diameter of 22.5mm, the TAD EL84-STR does not fit into older Marshall DSL401 made till week #20 in 2014 and UK-made VOX AC15 TBX amplifiers of the same time range.

The tube which did fit these amps is the Ei EL84 or certain NOS models. All new production of EL84 does use the 22.5mm standard. Later versions of these amplifiers have been updated to accept 22.5mm diameter tubes with no problem.
