I Searched and found the linked thread. I THINK it indicates that in the subaudio (infrasonic) frequencies, an 'N7's input impedance is an open circuit, which means to me many tens of megOhms. That means it can be ignored when calculating the filter point of its input-coupling cap, yes? So the grid-load resistor of 1M-Ohm in the case of my ASL Hurricanes is the resistance I should use in the filter formula?

- TYVM. THAT makes it easy. Now, how about for a KT88? - jeffreybehr 12:15:42 07/12/06 (2)
