why does Rod Elliot say regulating is hard on the MOSFETs

This is the first two EFs of a triple, right? Is there a larger value shared resistor between R26 and its counter part on the PNP side?

Funny you should ask that. I'm trying to have it both ways, with half of the R split and half directly to the complement. I've attached the schematic.

I have done as you suggest with R26 and R21. There's no damping of the instability, and I see a frequency response peaking up by a few dB just above 10 MHz.

I need to play more with the base stoppers to see what I can do with that without hurting output stage bandwidth. I'm trying to get the output stage response pole out to about 20 MHz to allow 60 dB of feedback at 20 kHz.

This is still a work in progress. I don't know if this is how it will look when it is finished.
