RE: Really?

My mistake; I was only considering taking the output from the lower plate. Some 20+ years ago, we decided that sounds better than the mu follower, and I haven't re-visited that conclusion since.

So, the mu follower current source is a moderate current source, and the solid-state current sources are by and large superior - if the output is taken from the lower plate. The half-mu stage with a choke at the upper cathode does have two available outputs, as does the full mu-follower. The choke does not have to be large, since its inductance is effectively multiplied by mu.
