What's the difference between Mullards and IEC Mullards. Are they a rip off and just using the Mullard name or are they the real thing.

IEC was the name of a company, International, that I think owned Mullard. IEC ServiceMaster was the full name I think. They are legit but as with anything tube related look for the codes etched into the tube near the bottom.

I put the tubes into V1 of two different amps. I don't know if I'm a victim of the Mullard placebo effect, but the two amps I put the tubes into sound really good.
