Telefunken ECC802S the "Holy-Grail" of all 12AU7/ECC82 tubes.
..."ETHEREAL CONDUIT TO A HIGHER REALM" ..On the other sonic-side lies the realms of musical-ideals, dream worlds, and the sonic-heavens and havens of different tube-religions. Telefunken ECC802S can be the conduit to outer sonic planes or sonic-astral realm"....
BEAUTIFUL SMOOTH SOUNDING!Siemens ECC802S is certainly one of the MOST COMPELLING candidates for the BEST OF CLASS 12AU7 SUPER TUBE of the 1960's NOS vintage Munich West German pick. Its PERFORMANCE was OFF-THE-CHARTS in three separate listenings for this report, Classical, Rock, and JAZZ The BASS is SUB-SONIC deep, sumptuously textured, full-bodied, and powerful yet completely CONTROLLED solely by you with your precise preamp controls . The MIDRANGE displays a VAST ARRAY of secondary high-level octave nuances, the tube has MAJESTIC layers of 3-D harmonic depth as well as a ELIXIR-liquid sonic textures. The HIGHS are pristine pure and true to life, you will SWEAR the singer is in the room with you with a SPOOKY sense of REALISM, only TRUMPED by a live performance.
Tube Museum.
Best low-noise closely matched solution for your 12AU7 application. "... The 1960's Telefunken early ECC802S with klingarm Platinum Low-Noise represent the full expression of Telefunken's best achievement for a 12AU7WA / 6189. The richness of the music reproduced surpass any other previous attempt of any other tube ever made.
While listing to Miles Davis SKETCHES OF SPAIN with Gil Evans I can hear, see, and feel Miles sitting on a stool in a section in my listening room, a trio of trumpet, trombone and flute behind him. As if the members of the band are right in the room with you! The dense textural details and markings for dynamics are performed precisely as recorded and reproduced so that all the interweaving parts emerge clearly. The depth of musical emotion is distinctly audible with every detail of the pure orchestral fabric as I'm not hearing my preamp, amp, or speakers anymore, just pure music, the conduit to a higher musical realm, as if there is no hardware at all! "Miles above" and Simply beautiful and well worth the price for the ECC802S 'klingarm' factory tubes!...worlds better than the newer commercial series by "miles"...

It wasn't unusual for tube companies to source tubes and label their own name on them back in the 1960's.
During this time Telefunken had the registered-name of ECC802S for their own exclusivity.
When Telefunken made these for Siemens they had to choose another numbering system, and Siemens choose E82CC.
These tubes are really Telefunken ECC802S and yes they have the Diamond < > in the bottom.
These are not Siemens tubes, they are Telefunken ECC802S with the Diamond.
Same tubes as Telefunken because they ARE Telefunken <> ECC802S
