Single Ended Triodes (SETs), the ultimate tube lovers dream.

RE: We don't all have to agree ...

"Taking drive from the top tube makes the circuit an SRPP."

No it doesn't. This circuit *looks* like SRPP, but the values are wrong, so it doesn't create SRPP functionality. There is NO push-pull action.

"I'm sure I said that the CCS is less than ideal but it is, nonetheless a CCS of sorts because it multiplies the effective plate load R of the bottom tube by mu+1"

It functions as a simple resistance. It's not a CCS to any degree.

"I'm with Paul on the difference in sound"

Fine, but the conclusions you've reached don't logically translate to the negative generalities being voiced on this forum. SRPP is a highly useful and very transparent topology when done right.
