Your depth of understanding is far superior to mine, of course. Can you explain what's happening in the bootstrap schematic? Funnily enough, I recently modified an old Silvaweld phono stage which incorporated a bootstrap by taking a lead from between two resistors that in series provided Rk for the CF output stage back to the cathode of the previous gain stage. I removed the "top" one of the two CF cathode resistors and the resistor that went back to the previous gain stage cathode and replaced the latter two with a CCS, such that between B+ and ground I have CF-CCS-22K resistor. It sounds good, but is it better than the original design? I do not really know. In fact, I do not really understand what's going on with a bootstrap topology.
