Looks like a pretty darned good filling of the niche!

Let me pick one nit on pluginpower.html:

     "Some microphones require a small voltage to polarise
      their electret capsules ..."

Electrets are permanantely polarized.  The plug-in-power
is to bias (power) the transistor that's the 1st stage
impedance lowering amp.
