Well sqarewaves are squarewaves and music is music. Squarewaves are good for tracking problems, not so good for judging the goods or bads in a music machine. No news for anyone here I guess.
Vgeorge, I wouldnt be surpriced is the 25 mA iron is on the edge of saturating, and that might be what we are looking at.
There is lots of line trafos that leaves unnoticable footprints on squarewaves, I think its more of an implementation thing.

Correct Stajo. I don't dismiss iron, in fact I try to use it most possible. Just this iron in this implementation did not work out. In fact in my power amp I m using now have some nice Hashimotos!
Even if I solved the slight ringing on the scope, I should take extreme measures to avoid microphonies.

Nope, my 26 has a ixcp10m90s gyrator load and cap output. No cash for a good output transformer.
If your power amp has a highish input impedance that' s fine!
Well, first, when I decided to go for #26 pre, I knew I was not aiming for the ultimate fidelity, but for a nice tone and liquid mids. And it has these qualities. This is more truthful to the source and more dynamic with bigger stereo size, depth and resolution.
I' m tempted to take the TVC from the other pre and put it here now that I have the space......
