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

RE: Smeared?

It goes up but how significant it is depends on the rest of the system.
The preceding stage in my case has output impedance of about 47 ohms and I use a 470 ohm grid stopper. A paralleled 6SN7 has about 8pF of plate to grid capacitance and in the case of using a CCS, a mu of about 20, so about 168pF miller.
I say "about" because the two sections of a 6SN7 don't have the same input capacitance and even with a CCS the mu can vary tube to tube.
So yes it affects the FR but whether it makes a difference is up to the builder and the application.
