Here are the other E80CC from my collection. I don't have any gear that uses these, so please don't ask why I have them. :rolleyes:
Four Siemens and 4 SQ Miniwatt, although they look the same internally.

Now for some 12AU7/ECC82. For a short time I had a CD player that used 12AU7, a set of two. So ... I stocked up. And like the E80CCs, I don't really have any need for them.

These beauties are factory selected for Tektronix oscilloscopes. The original labels are plainly visibly under the glued on label.
