The EF buffer on/off becomes output voltage/current dependent. The output stage gain has additional changes due to this phenomenon as depicted in the figure. An additional nonlinearity is added to the output stage.

What about a true CFP triple??? Only one 0.7V B-E drop?

I'm designing one now, it has the CFP, but the emitter of the predriver is tied to the OUTPUT through a resistor. Turned it on, but get some oscillation, but still tweaking it out.

A true CFP does not have such phenomenon.

That will be an option I'll look to investigate. I really don't have any experience with amplifier design other than simple LM3886/LM4870 designs, so I imagine the learning curve will be steep. I did get my LM chip in though, so once I get my recession buster speakers built I'll get into this project more seriously.

I do like hearing that the output stage should be reuseable though. Other than ljm_ljm, the general consensus seems to be that if properly implemented this should make a serviceable amp.

The learning curve can be as steep or as shallow as one wants/needs.
It's one's ambition that puts on the stress.

Default Any update?

Did you actually try this?
It looks, as you say, very similar to the Self circuit but the low resistance that ties the CFP to the load means it works quite differently, I think. So I am quite curious about your results. What's the latest?
