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

RE: WE 91A Clones all seem to Omit the Feedback of the original 91A amps...

Maybe a little...

It is my understanding that the inherently high output impedance of the pentode driver causes the freq roll-off when driving a DHT. This is not necessarily a "bad" thing, and may actually be beneficial in some systems.

I run a tube DAC (real tube output, not buffer) and use a 6C6 to drive a 2A3 and there should be some roll-off - maybe -3dB at 20kHz - but I don't find it obvious; the high frequencies are resolved and plenty present for me. I could easily run some +ve feedback, but don't feel the need.

Regards,
91.
