Philips electronics components group was the name given to the products marketed in America after Philips bought the American valve manufacturer Sylvania in the early 1980’s. Sylvania was a major manufacturer of valves and Philips bought them to get the lucrative American Government and military contracts. These valves are specially selected and Cryo treated to offer the highest military grade construction and the ultimate sonic performance and were all made in the USA.
Black Plate Cryo Version


Special Cryo treated version of the original American Military JAN 6V6GT which are considered by many guitarists as the best sounding version of Philips 6V6GT. Indeed the best 6V6GT for that Classic American 6V6GT sound.

The military grade JAN specification Philips 6V6GT is the benchmark for that classic Fender clean sound. The valve has a clear top end has chime and vibrancy that no other 6V6GT can match.

In clean mode, The Cryo Philips 6V6GT is stunning with Fender Strats and Teles sounding clean and sparkling, particularly nice was the out of phase sounds. No other valve gives that open and clear top end chime. The Cryo version has more top end sparkle, more mid-range punch and more bass slam and a clear overall tone than the untreated version. The bass response is tighter and cleaner with more clarity. So if you like the standard version you will love the Cryo version.

Fender guitars can go from clear picked notes to even crunchy chords by just adjusting the gain. The midrange also had a clarity and sparkle which put many of the 6V6GT in the shade.

In overdriven mode the Philips cryo valve excelled as it provides a clean punchy overdrive with plenty of rich harmonics. The other real major advantage of the cryo version is that it has excellent clarity when pushed into overdrive. The Cryo version has a nice crunchy later break up, the midrange is rich in harmonics with unrivalled clarity and when fully overdriven the bass does not go flabby like many other 6V6GT.

A great choice for any 6V6GT powered amplifier available in matched pairs and quads
