The Balanced Gold Pin ECC83S is located in V7 which is in the back row farthest from the input jack. The Gold Pin ECC81 is located in V5.If your amp is the combo version and you have chosen to use the JJ 6L6GC's then please let us know in the comments section and we will ship your kit with the special Double Mica 6L6GC's at no extra charge which will greatly reduce any tube rattle. JJ Electronic started building us a proprietary version of their 6L6GC (the 6L6GC-DM) in 2005 with extra layers of mica. This reinforces the plate structure and all but eliminates tube rattle symptoms. For other tubes such as E34L's, EL34II's, EL34's, KT77's and 6CA7's, we recommend using our EuroDamper rings. These are available under the "Related Products" tab as pairs and will greatly decrease tube rattle.
