A cathode follower buffer / driver is one in the same. It IS the output stage of the LS25 MKII.Sure, the input of the JFET will be driven by the source component and the output of the JEFT will drive the input of the next stage. In the case of the LS25 MKII that next stage is the cathode follower buffer/driver.... to drive the outboard power amp.
I suspect it will be unity gain, or less. The output of the cathode follower buffer will then drive the external power amp.
So in terms of tonal character, which was my initial point, I believe it is mostly due to the JFETs in the LS25 MKII and less to do with the 6H30 tubes.
