In Reply to: What does DHT PP do differently/better then DHT SET? posted by Frihed89 on August 3, 2014 at 07:36:36:
PP in a DHT amp - and I've built a few - can sound a bit cleaner overall. My preference would be SE input stages and an interstage splitter - good one. You can lose the cathode bypass caps by using tubes in the tail or ss devices for constant current sinks. I loathe cathode bypass caps.
But I only get that magic in the midrange, and especially vocals, with SE. Or in my case PSE 4P1Ls.
Can't live without that magic. Must have it.
