RE: New vs vintage ARC tube amps

ARC circuitry has changed a lot over the years. The early amps all had similar circuitry and it was quite complex with multiple push/pull stages and cathode followers meaning lots of tubes. The latest amps have much simpler circuits partly due to newer tubes with lower output impedance so they don't need extra cathode follower tubes.
