AUDIO VALVES: ECC82 12AU7 CV491 CV4003 B329 M8136 7193 TWIN TRIODE
The ECC82 was designed as a general purpose medium mu twin triode. A special quality version was also produced, for the military bearing the notation CV4003. An anti-microphonic and matched section version designated the E182CC was also made.
An amplification factor of 17 is quoted, which is much lower than that for the pin compatible ECC83 at 100. The glass tube envelope is approximately 20 mm in diameter and, excluding the B9A button base pins, is approximately 50 mm in height.
