Default e80cc = 12au7?

Someone is selling e80cc's on ebay and claiming they are can be used in
place of a 12au7. Is this true? I cant confirm the equivalence
anywhere.

I use a Chinese Sonicgear amplifier for my PC. It actually uses one ECC82 / 12AU7 tube for preamp. I replaced it with a NOS Tungsram E80CC and never regretted that. The improvement in sound is unbelieveable.
But be cautious: may be the E80CC can replace an ECC82 only for audio but not for driver.
