They basically use the first transistor as a current sensing diode and use that to control the second. The problem is that the working voltage swing is on the order of microvolts so it utterly destroys your dynamic range and makes truly detailed reproduction impossible. The only way to achieve acceptable reproduction is to use the transistor in its most natural configuration, as a current amplifier. The only way to make it usable in that configuration is to select a part with a reasonable forward current gain. By running it at fairly high current, the inherent quantum noise of the device will be nulled out and you should be able to achieve pretty good amplification. =) -- New president: Here we go again...
