Now it makes sense to me. The cathode followers are to give the 12AX7 enough drive to power the KT88's/6550's, which I understand are difficult to drive. It gets the job done, but it does seem like a lot of circuits go out of there way to use 12AX7's when another tube would be a better choice.
Is this circuit more or less stable than a traditional 6SN7 Williamson without the CF? (I suspect less.) will the traditional 6SNZ Williamson drive PP KT88's/6550's sufficiently?
TIA!
Dave
