   Thank you!  A very nice, simple circuit. And further support of my contention   
   that with tube amps, there has been nothing new since perhaps 1970, or so   
   (very probably 1960) but for a few tube variants. We try to make a better   
   mousetrap, but soon realize    
   that the good old Cat still does it best.    
      
   This is not a bad analogy, as it happens. Tubes can be troublesome, are   
   entirely incompatible with some, require careful attention and understanding,   
   yet can be very rewarding. Much as a cat. I also find, coincidentally, that of   
   my acquaintances and    
   friends that keep tube audio, more than half of them also are kept by a cat.   
   Murphy & Seamus spend a good deal of time with me when I am either listening   
   or working in my Radio Room. Supervision and companionship.
