Jean Hiraga's Super Class-A Amplifier
This design was modified from the original's Hiagra
to obtain an inverting input
and eliminate the internal function of the differential feedback
that works much better with the external resistive divider

The input impedance of 680 ohms is not something I'd expect to be driven easily with any kind of preamp. Increasing resistor values would increase noise, too.
Guess why high-gain inverting amps aren't too popular.
You may find them as inverting buffer stages (gain -1) though.

Have you tried this amplifier? You have positive feedback (it's an oscillator) and the output devices will run at any current they would like...
You are right. I didn´t see that There are 2 voltage inverters (CE) and 2 followers (CC). This is a zero net inverting phase, so it is positive feedback.
I would say any few kind of preamp like such equipped with tubes and several vintage models from the 60s (e. g. first solid state generation).The input impedance of 680 ohms is not something I'd expect to be driven easily with any kind of preamp.
Considering the advantages and disadvantages of a lower input resistance by power amps for new projects (approximately between 500 ohms and 5000 ohms), clearly outweigh the benefits.
Modern audio devices with high output impedance are very rarely on the marked.
Additional a refitting of an impedance matching section isn't a great issue.

Same basic consideration regarded the input stage
