BEL E88CC - NOS!!

Offered here for sale is a matched pair of BEL E88CC also known as 6922. These tubes were purchased NOS from Upscale Audio just a week or so ago. They are rated as Kevin's Stash which is the highest performing of his PLATINUM grade. These are simply the best of the best.

From Kevin’s website:

BEL Philips SQ design 6922/E88CC – Wow! This is a special day. One of my favorite 6922’s is the 1960’s vintage Philips made 6922’s. Made in Holland, on a rare occasion you may find one branded Amperex or Mullard, but made in the Heerlen plant. We have them here on the website, and they are pretty expensive.

There was a factory in India named BEL that made the exact same tubes as the tubes made in Heerlen. I have some here now in the 12AU7 section, and in the past had them in the 12AX7 section. 12AX7 tubes made in India for $275 each. So you get the idea they have made some heady stuff. But never had them in 6922’s. They made them, but I could NEVER find them until now. The internal parts are 100% exactly the same as the 6922 Heerlen, and they sound the same. I might even suspect that all they did was assemble Dutch parts at BEL.

The sound? Fabulous. The top end is extended, so if you need more air on top this is perfect for you. And because it has more air on top, the cues that create a sense of space in a room will be present. Wonderful, powerful bass. Quiet too. So this tube is good for somebody that is looking for more “air” on top

I am selling as I have many other tubes and have settled in using a different pair. These are perfect in every regard!

These tubes are quite rare and are sold NOS for $127 per tube. I am offering both tubes, the pair for $190.

Thanks for looking.
