Patience.
Numerous steps have to occur before it makes it into the store, but we do have
all the crucial parts and metal.

Wrong attachment, I supposed.

Yes, new trick..![]()
4pcs. of TO3..it's a single-ended or push-pull amp ?
Any news about project front end(s) please ?
At this time it has no front end. It's a follower circuit.
Will you create a new thread or write up an article on this one?
I was under the impression this was going to be a variation of the SIT 3 circuit or at least the output stage, but using Sony parts.
In his opening post,Michael Rothacher suggested the thread be used as a "scratch pad" for ideas pertaining to the remaining VFETs. Now that it's served its purpose, I vote for a new thread.
Besides, I'm pretty sure Nelson has come up with a catchy name for this final diy VFET kit. I can't wait to see! 😀

A follower circuit, eh? Hmmm. I wonder if Papa found an N channel device to play nice with the VFET so he can use an auto-former similar to what he did in the SIT-3.
Of course I'm really stupid and on medication, so I might be hallucinating!
😀😀😀
well , Papa didn't asked for my proposal of name
frankly , even in the past , when he asked , and I gave a dozen beautiful, meaningful, catchy, witty, genius, unique, snappy, etc. names - he didn't use any of these
go figure

Thanks Mr. Pass
Interesting!
Prototype PCB shows only one trimmer for adjustments, very convenient 😀
This amp perform better with particular type of power supply ? Best regards

Provocateur, fishing answers 😀
I believe that second trimmer is hidden behind the capacitor, as is the second optocoupler. Picture was posted for reason and I think we are not providing enough entertainment. Where are wild theories and “brilliant” ideas what this new surprise is about?
Does this amp use single or dual rail PS? From PCB wiring I’II put my money om dual rail.
Nobody asks what are two big capacitors doing there. Are they for output coupling? Don’t think so.
Are they additional RC filter for the power supply lines? Maybe.
Or are they AC bypass on some high value resistors in some new biasing solution? IDK, but those two capacitors are likely to be part of mentioned new trick.
More dumb ideas? Bring it on. 😀
Someone will be spot on, only we won’t know who until official schematic is published.

Will kit be provided, in the beginning, without front end or there will be some?
If not, Is BA3 front end suitable for this amplifier?
..Nobody asks what are two big capacitors doing there. Are they for output coupling? Don’t think so..
If Papa have Nichicon Fine Gold on the board ~ 6800 uF this is for output DC coupling..10000uF is for something else : filtering.
Let's speculate
