I have found that ac balance is the critical factor in PP stages. I use a pot to tweak the balance in each stage for best sonics or if I have one available, a spectrum analyser for best harmonic distortion profile (smooth roll off of harmonics). I was taught this by a club of old time tube engineers nearly 30 years ago. Of course this needs periodic resetting...Now I'm playing with CCS and true differential stages as per the latest discussions. To early for conclusions yet as sometimes they are better than the traditional and sometimes not...
I abandoned parafeed fairly early on for much the reasons given above. I prefer neutrality and transparancy and good iron on its own seems the best way of acheiving this...
