"The linearity of the output followers in my hypothetical amplifier example will not change as the supply voltage goes from +/-30V to +/60V."Is that because they are followers?
BTW The Circlotron circuit uses bridged cathode followers as an output stage.

Do any of you guys actually design amplification circuitry, other than for your own personal enjoyment?
I'm asking because I'd like to know if any of you are pros in this field.
Yes. Not for the audio frequencies, though - RF.
I guess if you count control circuits that operate at low frequencies, they could be considered as audio. But, sound reproduction is not their intended purpose.
I meant to add a footnote to my last post that I am a semiconductor designer not an audio electronics designer so take my inputs as you will. But basic principles are true in both disciplines except that in the audiophile world there is little correlation between objective performance and subjective preference so knowing those principles/not knowing them may not help/hinder.

I have designed and built tubed microphone preamps use in professional recording studios. Does that count?Tre'
