how about grounded grid ?

Bob can you get  better isolation with a vaccuum tube cascode than a solid state cascode ?

The 2N5179 has high base spreading resistance (decreases isolation).
As does sticking a resistor (even a small one) in series with the base …. Yes, 
inductance
is even worse.

For “best isolation” in a cascode you very much want the base of the common base
stage nailed to ground. Typically “lower” Ft transistors with a decent base 
structure
are the best choice for the common base stage. Both stages benefit from low 1/F 
noise
in the audio range if this is for a phase noise test se
