That's very interesting.
Looking at the Melquiades i've always wondered about a few things.
If you don't mind, i will ask you about them:

1. If you think gas regulators make sound of 6E5P so nice, didn't you try putting gas regulator tube in the grid of the 6C33C, and why?

2. You are heavily filtering bias voltage with LCRC filter.
But you're using gas regulators, which are supposed to filter the ripple very well.
So, do you need this additional LCRC filtering at all?

3. How does sound of your amplifier change when you extract gas regulators from sockets?
As far as i understand, there should be no problems (technically speaking) running Melquiades without them, as all voltages should not change...

Thanks in advance for your answers.
