Ray Tubes Select 12AX7

Tube: 12AX7 Socket: 9 Pin The Ray Tubes Story RayTubes was created to supply the audiophile and hi-fi market with high-quality, new-production vacuum tubes designed specifically for audio equipment. The company partners with manufacturers to create tubes to their specifications, subjects them to a rigorous quality control process that includes listening tests by sound engineers, and offers them through various partners and retailers. The Select Series Premium SELECT tubes are manufactured and tested to meet a higher tolerance standard, and will provide superior and more nuanced sound than tubes from the CORE collection. Only the best tubes from any manufacturing batch will ever emerge from the factory, and the SELECT tubes are the cream of the crop of any given batch. SELECT tubes are not only tested for their superiority, but placed in amplifiers and listened to under real world conditions by audio engineers. With a twelve-month warranty covering tubes against manufacturing defects, weʼll take care of you  during the first year of their ownership.
