I see that in general that cheaper toroids are half the price of cheaper Rcores. As far as I can tell for the same or similar specification.
My stuff came from RS Components mostly...
...untill recently discovering eBay.
I now wait 3 weeks for it to get here, but pay often only 25% of the UK price.
No wonder the economy is down the john.
Unable to find R-Cores ANYWHERE in the UK anyhow...
...Yes I've dealt with Selectronic in France...
...where do you think they get their R-Cores from...
...Yep ...CHINA !
Wow !
Sure is busy here in the mornings !
Normaly on the 3am duty myself...
Yes Captain Salas...
...Klingon attack...we can ney hold 'em Capt.
Spock...warm up the soldering-iron...
...we're gonna build A SIMPLISTIC woobbley-groove enhancer.
I'm sorry Capt. That just isn't Logical.
Si.
Nar....but FUN !

Warning:
Very off topic:
I have alsolutely no sympathy for any of the main characters in the film.
My comment to a friend as we left:
"if they have so little responsibility to civilisation as we know it, then they should all be put down"
If that film portrays the real attitudes and behaviours of our young adults, then no wonder the "world" is going down the tubes.
These irresponsible attitudes (I am all that matters) have led to where we are now !

I'm not that young anymore...
...have always been totaly irresponsible.
( why not ? )
Just for now...
...I'm having fun building a nice new preamp, "With a little help from my friends".
Cool advice from musical luvin' geezers.
Cheers.
Si.
The book wasn't THAT great; dunno how they could make it into a good film.
Try the paperback.

You mean there is a film based on Jack Kerouac´s book ?
Cool book BTW, I read it just before I read psycadelic baby reaches puberty from Peter Stafford
Thanks, Salas. Should have read the threads more- missed the 11mA IDSS recommendation.
Well, Jaap's 2sk369's are no go. He's got ~100, many patched pairs and quartets. But lowest IDSS is 14.9..
Cheers- Kent

I have a couple of pairs at 11.4, 12 and higher.
So my boat isn't floating either.

Hi Salas
The JFETS ordered for my regulators have been shipped to me wrongly !!!
They are 2SK117-BL, not the 2SK117-GR you specify.
I am sure I already know the answer to this...but anyway...can I use any of them at all ?
I only ordered 10 as 'a test', will need eventualy 4 regs. I think ( for my friend as well ).
This is what was sent :-
12.26
11.11
11.02
10.98
10.40
9.98
9.75
9.34
9.12
8.97
No worries on the 'never ending parts hunt'...
...we nearly go 'em all.
This could be a bit of a set-back though.
I would rather 'bin' the high-current 2SK117BL's than make a 'dodgey-reg'.
What you think ?
Have got 3 @ about 9mA each.
Cheers.
Si.

Hi Ricardo
Well...
...unless anyone tells me different...
...the standard PDF 'Simplistic' for Hi-MC ( Denon DL-110 ).
' The V George Experiment' not suitable, too much gain.
I like your parallel JFET variation, ' The Wallace Experiment' ?...
...but too much gain again ? You're using 0.6mV Benz.
Dunno, is it ?
Looks like 'Simplistic-Original' for me, unless any other TOP-SECRET schematics about !
Hope to have full JFET current-list, later.
Cheers.
Si.
BTW Ricardo...
...Have now found 2nd reel of resistance-wire...
...much better for very low Ohms, other stuff was better for 30-45's etc.
The resistors don't actualy NEED winding, they can be just 'nude' I think.
Minimal inductance for sure.
The 30-45's could be 'flat wound'.

Hi Space
"Normal" Simplistic uses k170BL at around 8 ~8.5mA Idss, so no GR specified.
Can you find more k170 so you can choose the correct Idss ones ?
I am using the folded cascode simplistic with a 0.8mV Benz with great success because I have a DCB1 buffer (no gain) and a low gai power amp.
WW would be nice for the 33 ~ 39r

A friend had weird problems with BL in SSLV1.1 once. Proceed with caution. If yours is gonna work stable on scope, use them.
MM and folded simplistic are difficult to go well, it would take too high a VDS with possible gate leakage problems, pronounced on MM higher Rsource. But take comfort, the SNR with DL110 and HiMC gain scheme in classic simplistic is naturally competitive to folded for MC if not better.
The folded schematic with 2x K170BL I recommended to Ricardo in lieu of K369 is near 60dB in reality, and second option to single K369BL. Very good except still wanting for low mid to bass different silicone wafer doping GR noise VS 369.
Yesterday I finished modding to folded and re installed my ref build that belongs to a friend. Awesome result. He was chuffed.

I had the opportunity to listen to it with about 0.8mV cart like yours yesterday. Only bit more pricey. Goldfinger Statement. There it really comes to full.
