Now why shold it come as a surprise to anyone that you could null out thrid harmonic distortion by using just the right amount of negative feedback? And by nesting feedback loops, you can null out other harmonics as well. An exceptionally powerful tool when properly used for improving amplifier performance. (I know I'm probably one of the only ones here who thinks negative feedback is one of the greatest inventions since sliced bread but that's the way I learned it 35 years ago and is still seems to me to be right on target.)
