Product Summary Made by Philips-owned Mazda factory (La Radiotechnique) in Suresnes, France (not in Holland like other Valvo ECC82 tubes) and therefore you get the distinct French flavor, a warmer and wider (and surely more romantic) sound with more vocal forwardness than the Heerlen production. Sound Characteristics Immediately appealing is the super smooth highs offered by these tubes with lots of open air. The overall tonality of La Radiotechnique ECC82 tubes is warm, musical and euphonic. And this feature is even more pronounced on the French version with an unmistakable romantic flavor. The midrange displays some secondary octave nuances, which is very unique and can hardly be found even on the super high-end German tubes. Similar to Telefunken ECC802S tubes, the La Radiotechnique ECC82 tubes can create infinite levels of harmonic depth and a liquid sonic texture without altering the musicality of the sound. The bass on these is the clear winner of the Philips tubes family:
