«  a little disappointed »

purchased more out of curiosity than necessity, because it is supposed to deliver a sound "metal" ...
after testing on my head Jet City 100W lamp is not terrible ...
in V1, but its very good gain and loss of right lower importance.
in distortion I find it very smooth, flat, almost sterile anything.
Ditto for V2, the distortion is a bit too flat and smooth.
Tried V3 (cathode follower position), it was super weird electrical noise, even at zero volume master! I quickly removed.

Conclusion: good gain, but its too entitled to my opinion.
And not used in cathode follower position!
