The values in it suggest that the values you are asking about are incorrect.

I'm not sure that the application document you linked is the application I'm using; it appears to take a balanced line feed and convert it to a single unbalanced signal.

The example I copied in my post (linked below from Jensen's site) keeps the balanced signal, with the + side going to one triode and the - to the other - as in my proposed amp. It shows the grid resistor for each triode at 4.99k to ground, for a total of (almost) 10k load on the transformer, matching the 10k secondary of the transformer.

It seems intuitive to me. Or am I completely missing something?

Back for a bit again. Ignore me if you like.

  You got it right.
  
  The transformer presents about 13K load to your DAC with the dual 4.99K resistors. I don't know what I was thinking!

    Thank you so much for helping out, I wouldn't have a successful build without it. I'll order a pair of input transformers.
    
    Kinda takes away from the junk box character of the amp, but that's ok, it's something new for me.

    - Yeah, sorry about that. - Ralph 12:09:04 02/08/24 (0)
      Your circuit is similar to the one at the link. You might want to take a look. There is a kit for it IIRC
