With the new data, the initial circuit seems quite good but IMO the most important part is the 500.5Hz pole (zero).

Disregard all previous recomendations.

As your real parts values are not exactly as Puresound schematic I suggest only:

R17 38K9 CADDOCK TF020R
Should be R17 = 38k9 // 2M62 = 38331r
C7 .006 paralleled .0022 = 8,2nF
Should be C7 = 6nF // 2.2nF // 0.1nF = 8.3nF
This way you preserve the 500.5 pole because 38331 x 0.0083 = 318.15 (almost 318)

I would also place a 7M paralelled to R1 but as SY noted, this is dependent of the tube used and also on the system... It should be ear tuned.

Lowering this R1 resistor (bypassing it with a larger one) produces a lift in the power zone.

Hi Merlin

If you must use 150v PSU, maybe you could build this one.

It is well tuned and very similar to the Puresound.

Anyway, if you choose to start from scratch, you must consider the Itch.

I heard fran´s unit and even in the internet it sounds wonderfull.

Just received Guy answer:

"The internal resistance of an 83 is about 70Kohm which is in parallel with the 120K load resistor giving 44Kohm. This is added to the 330K and the result works in parallel with the 1M0 to ground giving 272K which is the net value used in the Eq calculation. The Miller capacitance of the 88 is 40pF which must be added to the 2n2 and 560pF to get the eq calculation spot on.

Hi Merlin

Please forward my thanks to Guy

I used his input to finalize my riaa simulator.

Guy´s values confirm mine in all respects. :)

I forwarded your thanks to Mr. Guy, I'm a little bit confused:

C7 8.2nF or 8.3nF?

C8+C9 2.760pF or 2.2806pF or 2.986pF? (all + 40pF Miller)

R17 = 38k9 // 2M62 = 38331r

R1 = 329K // 1M optional fine ear tuned
