I thought it might be interesting,

For people to post combinations of resistors used in their best performing amps and pre amps. (notice I leave the caps out) I know some will laugh, however in my latest project 1st stage cathode resistor has had a major impact on bass and imaging (probably beacuse its part of the FB) and it was not the expensive option that worked the best..

I have tried many types of resistor including tantalum and found this latest combination quite good..

Takman Rey 75 in the signal path..and grid stopper signal/(cathode or LED)
kiwame in the anode and power. or in stopper UL tap.

I know some people will just use whats in the box, however some people may have a preference..(I didn't think the takman REX was very good).

I have other combinations that have worked well..

Regards
M. Gregg
