Yes, I read the archives and your and others concerns regarding the term "grid leak resisitor".....
I suggest that in true terms "grid ground reference resistor" (GGRR)is most accurate, since that is what it is doing.....
That is why I clarified in my original post exactly the position I meant:)

Regarding the grid choke, I had previously used it with a hi mu driver, 6n2P-EV (12AX7 equiv) I think, and I really didn't care for it. Too much high end, lost the sweet low bass, no soul.

I don't think that is a result of the choke quality, just my application.
High rp, other issues....

Now I have re-designed several aspects of this SET amp, and the GGRR is one of the last to grasp.....
I find it hard to believe that in the DIY tube group, something as potentially significant as the GGRR hasn't been more fully explored?

I mean this sincerely, with no disrespect intended, as many of you have helped me gain the limited knowedge on this subject that I currently have...... and the ear will always have the final evaluation of "Best"....but I seek the technical background on this also....

peace,
robert
