I wasn't criticizing Jim. I was criticizing you.
Then you are being remarkably obscure. Criticising me for what?
I think his point is that 0.001uF / 1000pF (a figure that I, admittedly,
plucked from the air) across the output is less than some cable loads.
To quote you: "Arggh!... Plonking a 1nF capacitor across the output of
a feedback amplifier is a pretty likely way of making it unstable"
As Eiron points out, that's about 12m of Chord Silver Screen or a foot
of Townshend Isolda cable, which doesn't sound much does it?
Well, to me 12m seems quite long for domestic loudspeaker cables in a UK
context, although maybe not for the USA or elsewhere.
Don't forget the biwirers, especially those with wives who don't allow the
amp to be in the optimum position between the speakers.
