SSL 470K or R?

Sorry guys about this topic again...

I'm stuffing my SSL clone and I found out that the part list from the page doesn't match the diagram. On the list there is:

470K 1 RR-0636 $0.05 $0.05
470K 5 RR-0636 $0.05 $0.25

Both are the same so why write separate ?

And on the mounting diagram there is 5X 470R and 1X 470K so...

Any clue ?

Anyone know about the Greg Hanks BA-660

I've been researching a little on this mic preamp/compressor. Apparently this thing is incredible, but there are only about 40 of them out there in use right now. Does anyone know how it works? I know it uses (4) 6dj8 tubes (or 6922), and had a PCMCIA slot in the back which held the various compressor pre-sets. I wonder if this is some kind of vari-mu design with a solid state control voltage.

AC701 tube

Does anyone know why the ac701 is considered one of the best tubes for a condenser microphone? I have read what specs I could find on the web. I can understand why the grid wire exits the other side of the tube away from the other outputs.
