The Gearslutz post says 100 Ohms in series with 25pf, which I thought made a lot more sense.
I'm reluctant to accept that without comfirmation from the company, though, which I still haven't received.
Is that a typo? should it be 22pF, or even 22nF? I struggled to find a 25pF cap.
Hence my reluctance.
Put a 1 KHz square wave through. Does it look nice and square at the output or
does it ring?
Mild ringing:

If you add a 600 ohm termination resistor (which everybody should be using
running a Pultec into a modern output anyway) does it get better or worse?
If the square wave looks good, things are good.
You can use the calibration output from a Tek scope as a 1kc square wave
generator. It's convenient and comes free with the scope.
