N-set, clearly you have a much better understanding of electrical engineering than I do (as do most of my pets...)! Still, I am hardly terrified by tank circuits, just wary of inter-component/PS/signal mosh. And I really don't care what sort of divider someone wants to use, but I think the Axiom axioms actually happen to stress diodes, and you have cited the reasons why. Those chosen were said to be "linear", as diodes go, for the particular application. And since you mentioned Steve Bench, you probably know he used diodes for his phono stage. I say, good design allows some "slop", and I also like to be able to put hands on my operating points if I want to. OTOH, I am not putting hands on anything inside a chassis sporting 1.5kV!!! I hope you have some serious rubber gloves, and I hope you're ready to watch that PS on your TV!
I also admit ignorance as to how a simple resistor supplies constant voltage given (potentially) fluctuating current...
