It is very much might not be a false lead. I did not read further the article but on the first glance there is nothing wrong with that amp – it perfectly maybe a good-sounding amp. It has what is necessary – no SS in output stage – a big must for any low-mass loudspeaker drivers. So, it might work out fine.
The important point that I would like to stress is that your former 300B amp was very faulty and there are pure methodological evidences of it. An ordinary sounding amp but properly operating must not have such a huge difference as you describe. A regular simple 300B amp shell not eat S2 sound all together. The Tom Evans’ amp might be better but not at the point of “no colors” vs. “full of colors”. So, I am very convinced that your old amp was just not designed or was operating properly.
