Need 4-8, they don't need to be exact matches but hopefully close. For the preamp section of the Harman Kardon PM660.
Not sure if I can use the B-BL version, which I could order from the store if I need to.

If you are willing to use the Linear Systems clones, the LSK170A is equivalent to the 2SK170GR. It's available from these U.S. distributors:
NAC Semi
LSK170A-TO-92 | LINEAR SYSTEMS | NAC Semi
Trendsetter Electronics
LSK170A TO-92 3L Linear Integrated Systems - Trendsetter Electronics - Trendsetter Electronics
NAC Semi
LSK170A-TO-92 | LINEAR SYSTEMS | NAC Semi
Trendsetter Electronics
LSK170A TO-92 3L Linear Integrated Systems - Trendsetter Electronics - Trendsetter Electronics
Thank you both, I didn't realize Linear Systems A was equivalent to GR. Ordered!
The Toshiba 2SK170 was offered in three grades, according to IDSS (see Toshiba datasheet):
https://www.mouser.com/datasheet/2/408/6909-57550.pdf
GR: 2.6 - 6.5 mA
BL: 6.0 - 12 mA
V: 10 - 20 mA
The Linear Systems equivalents are:
Toshiba 2SK170GR: Linear Systems LSK170A
Toshiba 2SK170BL: Linear Systems LSK170B
Toshiba 2SK170V: Linear Systems LSK170C
I hope this helps.
i have two pairs of genuine toshibas that measure 7.9ma. I see it might be too late though.
Let me know if you are able to cancel your order and want to buy mine.

Those would seem to be the "BL" class based on the measured IDSS. I think the OP was looking for the "GR" class device.

The ABC grading system makes so much more sense than GR, BL, and V, and most other ratings I have seen. Maybe there's another reason for it. Granted, it's kind of fun to pull up the data sheets and feel like I know what I'm doing.
Thanks again for the offer, those are a higher grade and will have to see if they would work in this situation.
