I think "modern" is Jeff's term, maybe Dennis too. I'm just disputing that there is such a thing as one single "modern" power supply, or in fact one single "modern" anything in tube audio. It's a slippery slope - modern capacitors, modern resistors, modern shunt regs, modern output stages, modern biasing arrangements............. I think you get my drift.It's not a question of whether it's "easier" to use the term modern - it's whether it makes any sense! It's creating a mythology about one particular style of building. That's just one particular flavour, not the whole milk shake.
