Hi Jeff,
That is some neat implementation. Looks sweet. Looks like you have also reduced the use of those tags - fewer connections/ intermediate materials.
Also great to see you are starting to recognise the deleterious effects of unwanted capacitive coupling between components and chassis; a ways to go, but you are getting there! Component-to-component coupling is also an issues, especially capacitors...
I like a short/ direct current loop from the cathode to the PSU cap. This is one of my issues with a single star ground - the current loops are long. Sure, you are direct to the 0v ground reference, but the current (signal) continues all the way back to the PS caps and power transformer.
Nice work Jeff - your efforts are clearly delivering some very real benefits for your efforts.
Cheers,
91.

Nice to hear from you. Thanks for your kindness.I intend to re-do the Rk bypass yet another time, and have figured out a really decent approach. MAY post a photo if I do it as I have planned.
The general goal for me, from now ON, is to have 1 inch , 1 1/4 inch from Rk to the positive voltage terminal on the Rk bypass ( main ) cap. But NEXT, I wanna add film bypasses to the main Film Cap.
Live and learn.
Jeff

Live and learn - certainly, I am looking to learn more in this coming year. Easing back on the "busy work" and focussing on the important stuff - like building my next amp.Cheers,
