Hi Steven:

One question raised by your comment. Grounded grid, cathode driven will
have a natural inverse feedback that improves the imd performance. I reca=
ll
that the grounded grid 4-1000 has about -34 db of distortion. If the
inverse feedback improves by 9 db, that would imply that the distortion o=
f
the grid driven 4-1000 would be under -30 db.

Have you made any measurements of your distortion, or do you have the
published specs of the tube in grid driven configuration?

OOOPS  sorry about the stationery   forgot to turn it off
(THAT WAS WHAT THE ATTACHMENT WAS)
I will get that to you later Colin    has to dig everything up to make su=
re im right
I used an old handbook for the specs and has to dig it up
