The Mullard Radio Valve Co. Ltd was founded in 1920. In 1923,to meet the huge consumer demand in electronics Mullard entered an agreement with Philips of Holland and by 1926 Philips bought Mullard and established one of the greatest valve manufacturing companies in world history.
They developed many iconic valve such as the ECC83, EF86, EL34,EL37, EL84, GZ34 and GZ37.These are regarded as the best valves of their type ever made and original Mullard items are high prized by Musicians Broadcasters and Audiophiles the world over due to their sound quality.

This valve was specially designed by Mullard for the military hence is marked Cv4058 and has a number of special features
The CV4058 is the military version of M8080 has the famous box anode plate that Mullard used the CV4003 M8136 and CV4004 M8137 valve range. These boxed anode valve are believed to be the best of their type ever made as valve was designed and specially tested by Mullard for long life and to be shock resistant.
This valve has that classic Mullard mid band response associated with all the special quality box anode types. The Mullard CV4058 is fast and very dynamic with plenty of deep musical bass definition. It has a transparent and warm midband which is excellent on vocals and strings. This valve is used in very high grade amplifiers such as the Conrad Johnson PV-14 and PV-15 series pre amps.
This valves is also excellent in any circuit that uses an EC90 or 6C4 . I have use these in my vintage Ampeg SVT amplifiers as they reduce noise when the treble is boosted via the panel switches. They also take out some of the harshness when the treble is boosted.
This is considered the best Audio 6C4 by our high end customers as no other 6C4 Types comes close In terms of design, quality of materials and construction and audio sound quality.
Due to many customer requests under a separate listing we have these available in matched pairs if your application requires matching.
In most cases matching is not required of this single triode. If in doubt consult the manufacture of your equipment for clarification.
