Hi Thorsten,
Interesting preamp ideas.

The Silvaweld is also using some rather interesting ideas.  For example, the power supply is all tube (ie. rectrifier and regulator) with a large choke as well for filtering and using a 300b as the high voltage regulator.  I think this is due to the rather high current draw from the 4 WE 417a tubes that it uses (2 per channel as the design is fully balanced).  In addition it has two 6922 tubes (1 per channel).  I am not certain the circuit topology but the main gain stage is SRPP I believe. The 6922s are either another SRPP stage or they are a cathode follower but I am not sure which.   THere is no feedback and of course as we discussed it is transformer coupled in and out if using the unbalanced inputs.  I wish I could be more detailed for you but I don't have a schematic.  All wiring inside is solid silver in teflon.  The attenuators are in house designed 31 step jobbies also pure silver.

My understanding is that used properly the 417a is really a tube of choice for preamps.
