forgot about that whole voltage divider thing going on with parafeed... so while the tube would be putting out full power,
the output trannie would only see 1/2 of that power and the rest would go through the power supply...who cares about the tube putting out max undistorted power when 1/2 of that is tossed out the window???
in this case i suppose max "useable audio" power would be from an infinate plate load and an output trannie that presents 2X the Rp...
thanks for the correction.
