Powering
In order to preserve symmetry, use 2 x Rv resistors with a maximum tolerance
of 0.5% only.
If the amplifier inputs are single-ended (grounded) or have no input
transformers, wire either capacitors or optional transformers into the audio
lines to prevent any current leakage into the input stage.
