Brand Tubes - glowing advocates of good sound
Brand tubes are dear to us. Anyone who has once played their instrument through a good, matched tube amp with a suitable cabinet and heard it, will find it more than difficult to move away from analog amplification.
Dense, organic sounds, clear development, and a more lively, freer sound design are the results of good and high-quality valves.
Whether our customers need specifically matched valves for preamp, power amp, or other installation positions: Our huge assortment of brand valves perfectly complements our own TAD Premium Tubes and offers the right sound sources for all needs!
Matching - combining suitable valves
Analog technology in general, and tube amps in particular, act almost like organic individuals. Their components interact with each other like organs in a living body. No wonder then, that replacing individual components can impair the overall performance - sometimes with serious consequences for the sound.
Therefore, for our brand tubes, we rely on our proven matchings, where we combine specifically matched valves and offer them to our customers in sets of 2, 4, up to 24.
Our matching is the result of decades of experience in tube technology and is offered in two categories:
Standard matching
Even though the manufacturing standards of our brand tubes are so high, it is beneficial for the components from Haltron, Electro-Harmonix, GEC Valves, or BRIMAR to be specifically matched to each other.
Premium matching
Amplifier valves work together and should therefore be matched to each other. In particular, the individual gain performance of each pentode or triode must be matched.
Selected quality - our testing conditions for brand tubes
Our experience has taught us: Life is too short for bad sound. Therefore, we rigorously test our TAD brand valves. And only the best receive our Premium Selected designation.
These components meet the highest standards and have passed the following tests with flying colors:
- Noise Test
- Microphony Test
- Gain Test
- Acoustic Tests
- Shock Test
- Listening Test
- Uniform Signal Strength / Performance Test
Such tested components, whether pentode, triode, or preamp valves, meet the highest requirements to do what we all want in amplifiers: Sound!
