RE: differential phase splitter for the PP power ampilifier

With that tube complement, I'd for an all-differential design.

Stage 1 would be an LTP splitter, using a 6SN7 with a CCS in the tail (requiring a negative rail for the CCS). Stage 1 would be DC-coupled to Stage 2, a 6SN7 differential driver. Stage 2 would be cap-coupled to Stage 3, the 2A3 PP output stage. Such all-differential designs have extremely low hum and noise.

You could apply balanced cross-coupled NFB between the plates of the 2A3 and the plates of the first 6SN7 if you needed to bring down the amp's OP impedance (better damping).
