I will say that I agree with what you have said, Roman; that DIY'ers most likely to build the amp are probably a bit anti-Romy.  Too bad, I always say liten first and then comment.  Too many people in audio get wrapped up in the theory and ...

It turned out that I made my Melquiadenisation with 6C33C. Not practically because it is good or bad tube. The choose of 6C33C was partially accidental: in the beginning I was trying to make an amp that would be able to work in multi-app configuratio...
