Tony,
R5, the anode load resistor, in the later (8778 transformer) models is 47k not 100k as described previously. See 2nd schematic.
Then later still that 47k was shunted by a 4.7k and 300pF capacitor (the bizarre thing) in series. That is another aid to stability. Ref. Jez's 'kettle of fish' remark in post #56...
Jez,
I was quoting the remarks in ''Firsts in Hi Fi'' page 143 about the purpose of C1 used in the majority of Leak's amplifiers. I know there is some ongoing debate about it...
