Re: Phase Inverters

I can't say it's best, but I have good luck with the SS CCS as a cathode load for the long tailed pair. I've use it with 6BX7, 6BL7, 12BH7 and a couple of others. The CCS version I've used is the cascode mosfet type. I think it sounds good, the low level audio detail is tremendous, and has been reliable. I've also used the CCS as a cathode load for PP output stages so I have a full differential amp. The LTP produces good AC balance and if you want to use a pot in the cathode, which gives a bit of current feedback as well, you can get DC balance. As long as I get fairly close DC balance, I don't use the pot.
