RE: Yeah, there is that....

Love the out of date references made back in the 50s by Ralph and Tre when transistor development and doping were just in their infancy. These transistors were crude and dirty compared to devices made in the 70s and 80s and even ditier still compared to deices made today. Their tolerances back in the 50s were all over the map and when combined into an amp just compounded the problem despite deploying -ve feedback to reduce the effects of gross component tolerances. Its a wonder the amps sounded as good as they did.
