"No fixed bias amp has ever reproduced music in a convincing fashion because the bias doesn't vary according to musical demand."

Please correct me if I'm wrong.

It sound like you think that the bias in a self-biased circuit does vary according to musical demand?

Dennis, let me ask you one simple question.

Does the "musical demand" (signal AC) flow through the cathode resistor in a self-biased circuit?

Dennis, this is a yes or no question.
