I can appreciate the punk rock underdog attitude/approach/choice of "final", but linearity issues just won't go away.
For example I heard an SE amp with a paralleled 6SN7 "final" that is/was
probably about the same power as Franky there, but had to be lower THD.
Impressive on VOT's at reasonable levels. Another choice would be a 5687 "final", both are significantly more linear.
