Hi mikeyb,
This you stated is "by the book therory" regurgitated:
"PP stands for push-pull. In a class A push pull amp, the current drawn by one tube is the complment of that drawn by the other, so that the sum of the current drawn by the two tubes remains constant. The power supply sees a constant current draw. Both tubes are working all of the time. As the current in one tube increases, that in the other decreases."
I am TOTALLY aware of this "by the book" theroy, and what myself, and two others, (Chris O and Wheezer) have already posted is, A1 isn't excatly so simple in reality, and that the theory may not be 100% correct in practice.
Sometimes, questioning, and doing "out of the box" thinking, can lead to good new things happening.
