Hi Pass ,
No chance to get during the VFET lottery , hope to own the Vfet amp , I have a lot of 2SK82.
when is the part 2 sales ?
Lucky guy. Kits will be available after smoke clears.
All true about speaker efficiency as a key to enjoyment of small power classA amp.
But what if I like bratwurst and a beer?
Haha yummy bratwurs and beer

there is no p-channel for lu1014
F5 is fully complementary, jfets on the front, mosfets on the output
did I miss something?

As I understand from Jason (subject to much change) the phase 3 kits (for those with VFets already) would be shipping in October (or later…)
I’m hoping to learn from phase 1 and 2, and continue to follow the builds, and impressions. I hope to have a successful build later this year, keep a pair of spares, and donate the others to the cause.
Jumping on SissySIT R3 in an existing deluxe 5u Aleph J chassis when the kits come out. Wild card being a SIT amp from NP using the modular FE cards.

Mr_whocares - They are both wonderful and incredible amplifiers, I’d happily take either as a “desert island” or final amplifier for life.

thanks 6l6, and I know what you mean, and fortunately I own a diy sony vfet 🙂 . however, from time to time i am happy to enjoy my SE 300b 😉 . i was just wondering how is the sound signature of the wonderful sony vfet in a SE configuration compared to the PP.
best regards

How would you compare your 300B to your DIY Sony VFET? I'm guessing the PP provides a bit more authority than the SE 300B?
DIY Sony VFET is single ended, it is not push pull. Full schematics are published and freely available, have a look.
I to would like a sound comparison like Mr_whocares
I to would like a sound comparison like Mr_whocares - but perhaps a bit more detailed so :
Which one has the biggest Cherry on the top end ?
Which one has the biggest Enriched Chocolate mid range ?
Which one has the most Prunes in the bottom end ?
It would be nice to know what my diets missing out on.
