Too many BH amps and upgrades waiting for the solder iron preclude me from buying a Paramour. I would love, however, to buy the kit if you think it can be retrofited to hombrew Excite amps. Also, if you supply an schematic and parts list I would love to try it.

I assume that in order to do this mod the Excites would need to be RC coupled, right? There's, as always, a compromise between DC coupling vs RC coupling with shunt regulation, I guess.

Well hopefully you will post more details and I'm willing to try it.

BTW Doc, my five Paramounts project just took a turn when I decided to upgrade the iron with TFA-2004 nickels and EXO-003 chokes. We'll see how they stand vs my Parabees with DC heaters and JT Parabee 2 mod! Almost identical amps except for the driver tube?
