'A transformerless reverb driver'

From Merlin's 1st book, the output impedance of a cascode is Ra||ra2+ra1(u2+1)

where:

ra2 = upper triode's plate resistance
ra1 = lower triode's plate resistance
u2 = the amplification factor of the upper triode

For most triodes ra+ra(u+1)>Ra, therefore Zout~=Ra

which is why I was subsequently thinking that the output impedance wouldn't be high enough
