What is the major difference between and AC-701 and 6072 version of the ELA M 25x and why does the [“non-E”] AC-701 version cost so much more than the [“E”] 6072 version?

The AC-701 and 6072 tubes run on entirely different voltages. In order to run the tube correctly the power supplies must be different. The price disparity comes from the “non standard” parts that go into the “non E” version. The standard parts run across the ELA M 250/251 E & T microphones as well as the C-12. This affords us an “economy of scale” as we can order the parts in larger quantities, and pass the benefits of those parts savings on to you, the consumer. The “non E” version of the ELA M 250/251 is closer to a custom unit that is in production than an actual production product.
