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

RE: You live in the dark ages ......Think like a caveman,

" Current starvation can come from several sources:

(1) Capacitors that store too much energy and release it too slowly. The cap's re-charge cycle takes current away from what is to be powered, and the release cycle of a large cap simply doesn't even get started (release isn't fast enough) until the musical transient has come and gone."

No. This is not correct. The larger the capacitor, the more steady the voltage across it will be under a given fluctuating load current. This is just a basic fact of how capacitors work.
