Description

EL34 is high property audio output pentode, its anode limited dissipation power is 25W, the output power is over 10W when it is used as class A1 in amplifier single tube, and it is over 35W when it is used as class AB1 double tubes.
EL34 is very similar with 6CA7, which can be replaced by each other.
