[[File:Nuvistor 8056.jpg |thumb|350px|right|Nuvistor 8056]] The '''8056''' is a low-voltage [[Nuvistor]] triode with a 6.3 V heater.  


It is used in the [[10A1]], [[422]] and the [[5T3]]. It can sometimes be replaced with a [[MPF102]] FET.

It can sometimes be replaced with a [[MPF102]] FET.
 
The 8056 has a maximum plate-to-cathode voltage of 50V.
Contrast this with another Nuvistor triode, the [[7586]],
which has a maximum plate-to-cathode voltage of 110V.
The 7586 and 8056 have the same pinout,
but the two tubes are not interchangable
since they have different voltage ratings.
For example, in the front-end differential amplifiers
of the [[3A1]], the plate voltage of the 7586 tubes, V113 and V123, is 55 V,
and possibly a bit higher during warm-up.
This exceeds the maximum plate voltage of the 8056,
unless the 3A1 is modified for lower front-end plate voltages.
