I'll second Square's comments about the outstanding quality of this amp, and I think the nod goes to 3 factors that come together nicely here: the 45 itself, the overall quality of iron (MQ Parafeed stuff), and the simplicity of the design - heck there are more parts in the CCS than the rest of the whole amp! I'd also strongly support the idea of using a valve rectifier. I've heard it with both SS and Tube rectifier (Damper diodes, 5AR4 and 5U4) and prefer every tube variation we found to the SS stuff. It also seems to be much easier on those poor old 45's to ramp up the HV a bit more slowly.
