GB "long and skinny" FirstWatt J2 clone PCBs

[gary s]

Mistake in previous thread - B&D Ent. currently show a total of 97 in stock for the Toshiba 2SK170 GR.

Anyone in the US interested, please PM me, thanks.

 

[astromo]

gary s, maybe we can get an Australian syndicate together? Don't know who else would be interested?

 

[gary s]

B&D want over the top freight pricing, so if we can get someone in the US to help by buying with free freight to US states then reasonable air mail from then on will make it more palatable.

They have 40$ minimum order and in this case we must pay for import taxes🙁

The J2 (by my reckoning) needs 2SK170GR, rather than BL.

Still, that's a great price from AmpsLab. I ordered 20... I think I see a Wayne's BA2018 line stage in my future....

 

[Paul M]

Hi Jeff,

I just picked up the boards from the post office. As previously mentioned, ingenious packing!

[gary s]

I agree on the GR grade Jeff, but their pricing on the BL grade is very good for the 2SK170. They don't show any 2SJ74 though.

I agree on the GR grade Jeff, but their pricing on the BL grade is very good for the 2SK170. They don't show any 2SJ74 though.

I think the yield on the p-channel parts was always lower, which is why they're fewer of them around. (And also why Wayne's line stage uses only n-channel parts.)

[bk856er]

I plan to build my own because I'm an incurable DIYer, but I also just received the real deal from FW. Props to NP and RenoHIFI for greasing the rails. For those of you who haven't heard it you are in for a real treat!

BK

 

[yoaudio]

Did the same thing Bk, last month.
Real sweet amp.
