Then give us an example of a parasitic free 3-500Z amp....if you can.

And also please explain why the natural parasitic frequency of a tube as 
determined by math and in a test jig doesnt change, except minimally if at 
all, when in an amplifier circuit.

Methinks this will generate a real song and dance response.....again. Rich 
was a master at this.
