Cool...Yes !

But, the phase inverter is not a long tailed/differential type. Williamsons used the cathodyne phase splitter, aka: split load phase inverter. The Mullard and some McIntosh amps, as well as other vintage and historically important amps did use the long tailed pair arrangements. The split load inverter was one of the "features" of this long lasting Williamson design.

BTW, DTN Williamson was also the designer of the Ferranti ribbon phono cart pickup/tonearm in the mid-1950s. Why do I mention this, you all ask ? Because, that pickup was the first phono cart to offer an elliptical stylus. DTN Wmson was quite clever...
