Theoretically it can reach comperhensive consumprion for +18V supply and cca 20mA current, 360mW. But not at one resistor. Here is not any power branche in circuit.

After absorbing this for a bit. I think my simple way if understanding it is...

Resistors typically have Thermal and Contact noise. Reduce resistor values to reduce Thermal noise. Reducing the value increases current and therefore Contact noise and self heating. Use higher wattage rated resistors to reduce Contact noise. The closer down you get to 680 ohms the more it matters (potentially)

BTW, I'll be doing a larger analysis of the Rocket.

After all, your ear will show you the best way.
