Screen resistors-What value?

Triode-strapping is sort of a different thing though. The Magnavox SE amp is a pentode setup. Apparently with the humbucker trafos. I'm just curious if it being class A pentode vs AB pentode makes that resistor value matter some. Dave has implied that performance starts to drop off above 470 or so ohms on an AB pentode design, or at least there isn't any benefit to resistors larger than that value. I wonder if the same is true with a class A pentode.

I don't own any SE amps otherwise I'd just test it for myself.
