I use a 6n7 as the front end for my SE 2a3 amp. It has a shared cathode.

I also have the 2a3 cathodes shared and use a 10k transformer. Jim Dowdy's design. No cathode bypass resistor.

I think Dave Slagle posted on here once about the concept and the summary was it mono's the bass.

It works fine. Great center image. :)


I don't do fixed bias so I can speak to its superiority. I like simple.
