N-set, I give lip service and a sort of generic consideration to plate curves, but in the end I am not wholly secure in my understanding of this information as it relates to sound with a given tube in a given circuit.  My usual basic tactic is to ask rather less of the tube than it might give, in terms of plate dissipation, keeping one eye on the curves.  But I agree, I can't say that these curves look like something you'd generally choose for an output tube for an audio band amp.

But you've waited this long already; so I suppose that you are not going to spring into action as a result of some internet chatter on an "underground" DIY site.  As we frequently observe around here, plenty gets done as DIY just to do it.  OTOH, to survive building an amp like this should bring bragging rights, in itself!

Best regards,
Paul S
