Looks like a step backwards to me. Several actually. What your magical, mystical, 'mlp' is about has been adequately documented as an effects box. it is obvious they've found their niche of folk who like that sort of thing.
So, I must decline your ever so magnanimous offer. Do let me know when you decide to examine a real amplifier design process...that could not care less about what colour of wire is used, or how many leads you solder onto a cheap choke.
Come on out to MI when it is safe to gather, and examine some real amps in the wild. bring yours to compare... :)
cheers,

Friend, I would not hurt thee for the world...but thou art standing where I am about to shoot.

I actually remember running my first DC 2a3 built under Jeff's guidance and comparing it to a modded Dynaco ST-70 at my place with a SMAC gathering.
I have to admit, the ST-70 was better. At least in the HF region.
I still build effects boxes - but getting out and comparing amps is a good exercise!

Pak needs to make the trip to Livingston, MT and hear DF's SS gear in its most perfect setup and listening environment.
That would be the only way to understand what DF is doing.
Anything from another builder under the DF influence, likely has deviated from the original SE 7B4 DC 2A3 design and the end result will not be exactly the same.

I know that the trip will show me an effects box. You and he have both said it will. repeatedly.
As far as 6005 goes, there is one fine signal amplifier right there. Along with many other small power tubes you have never bothered to explore. 6V6GTA is another. 6CL6, 6DT5 for another. 1.2A of heater current for a tube the size of a 12AX7...effortless comes to mind.
So, happybear, you really need to get out more...really. I'll repeat the invite; would love to have you as an honoured visitor to listen to some amplifiers and speakers.
cheers,
Douglas

troll on brother!
Even JDM, a man at the side of DF for over a decade at RMAF, failed to replicate the SS 2A3 circuit exactly and moved on to other finals like 45, KT88 and now 6005.
Only DF can build his SE 2A3 circuit correctly.
Any other living human would probably fail to get it right!

"Any other living human would probably fail to get it right!"
That all depends on your definition of "right".
The design has several obvious flaws. Getting each of the flaws just right to blend together to make the exact type of distortion as Dennis does might be tricky.
On the other hand, fix the driver stage flaw and the power supply flaw and it's not a bad sounding amp.
It's pretty hard to make a SET 2a3 amp sound bad but Dennis can do it.

Awwwww- Shucks, TRE!
Try these: (1) Watch "Ice Road Trucker" on the DEFY
television network.
(2) SolariReport.com.
(3) educate-yourself.org.
-Dennis-
I watch Ice Road Truckers but I'm not sure what that (or the other two links) has to do with audio amplifiers.

Those suggestions provided more proof to the claim you have told us how your amps actually perform.
Effects box, IOW. Thanks.
I hope you have read the completed study on why worm medicine looked promising at first, and might still have a use IFF indeed one has parasites already. IDK, do y'all in Montana run around with untreated parasites these days? Or are you going to ignore the WHY of it, and insist it is useful by itself just because something incomplete said it might be?
I am betting on the latter... :)
