Coming Soon:
The B1 Buffer Preamp will be available in a matter of weeks. It is configured as a “passive” selector and volume control, but with a no-feedback JFET buffer that offers ultra low distortion and noise with ultra wide bandwidth. If passive preamps have not floated your boat in the past, you need to check this one out; it resolves several interface issues that have limited the popularity of passives.
The B2 Biamp Buffer. You say you tried bi-amping but didn’t get sound you wanted? The B2 uses two pairs of the buffers found in the B1 but configured for splitting the output of the preamp with variable relative gain to two sets of power amplifiers. This allows not only isolated amplifier impedance buffering, but adjusts the gain levels for different amplifiers. Even for identical amplifier channels it also allows the subtle adjustment required to get exactly the top/bottom balance you need.
B3 Preamp. Maybe you’d like a B1 but you need some gain.
How long is soon?

just combine JFet BOZ with B1 ( or even B2)
or make Jfet SL10
or JFet LTP with B1 ........ or B2 ...........
or Papa's JFet discrete OP
Re: Re: FirstWatt B3 Preamplifier
Sure, but will such drive an F4?

I was not happy with the original, and have finally gotten around to a re-design.
I expect to have it out in a couple months.
This is very, very, very good news!
Might I ask what you thought was wrong with the first design? Just trying to learn a little.

Very interesting, might be an even better Christmas than expected

Nobody liked it.
All the proper ingredients for a great joke were in place, but the audience
didn't laugh.
Let me guess please Nelson, your technical genius won against your ears.....
