Siemens CCa
Product Description
Siemens CCa - Made in West Germany. Impossible? This is the real deal... Super select 6922 variant. The rarest of the rare, and very hard to get preamp graded ones, so don't bust my nuts on the price. These were in bulk packs so come in generic white boxes. Most are branded Siemens.
If you're looking for this tube in Gold or Platinum Grade for use in a preamp or phonostage, please call to confirm compatibility. Some preamps can be a little hard on this tube, and we want to be up-front with you.
If used in a preamp or phonostage, you may hear a slight "ting!" through your speakers when you move switches, or tap on the unit. This is normal.
Platinum grade - The best of the best. Lowest noise and microphony with the tightest triode balance we have available. This is typically 10% or tighter, but may be higher depending on available stock.
Gold grade - Low noise and microphonics with a triode balance typically between 15% and 20%, but may be higher depending on available stock.
Driver grade - Lowest noise but not the lowest in microphony. Triode balance will be similar to Gold grade.
This grade is only suitable for use in the driver stage of an amplifier, or the output/buffer stage of a DAC or CD Player.
If you have a preamp or phonostage, you need at least Gold grade.

Price includes matching in any quantity you need at no extra charge.

Vacuum tubes are warranted for 90 days against defects, except in cases of abuse, and replaced with like-item only.
- Tubes being sent in for warranty must have a return authorization number from Upscale Audio. This RA number must be written on the outside of the box. Please also include a note in the box that has your name and telephone number, and please explain the issues with the tube. If this information is missing it will delay the shipment of your replacement tube.
- Vacuum tubes being sent to Upscale Audio for warranty replacement must be shipped in a box with appropriate packaging to keep them from being damaged. Vacuum tubes returned to Upscale Audio using inadequate packing will have a voided warranty and will be refused at the customer's expense.
Exceptions to our warranty policy are as follows:
- Upscale Audio reserves the right to refuse warranty at our disgretion based on the equipment being re-tubed. You will be notified of any change prior to your order being processed.
- Using a tube in an application in which it was not meant to be used. If your amp calls for a 6550, and you decide you want to plug in a 6V6GT, Upscale Audio is not liable if the tube fails, and will not honor any warranty in such a situation.
Upscale Audio is not liable for any damage or injury caused by the improper use of its tubes or the use of an incorrect/incompatible tube type. If you are unsure of what tube or tubes your equipment uses, consult the manufacturer before making a purchase. Using an incompatible tube type may cause severe damage to your equipment and will void your tube's warranty.
