Hi,
This is my first post here. I've been working on fixing a low left channel problem on my Nakamichi CR-3 and swapped the L/R JFets and found that the fault migrated to the other channel. So Im assuming that it needs to be replaced. I've been looking everywhere for the 2SK371 but they are no longer available. Would anyone have a good idea of a modern or easier to find replacement?

datasheet aailable here:https://www.alldatasheet.com/datasheet-pdf/view/30766/TOSHIBA/2SK371.html
i would think 2sk369 would work as a suitable replacement.
unfortunately, only maybe a little easier to find ...
good luck!

Thanks Mlloyd! Strange thing is I tested both 2SK371's with my tester and they came up as almost identical specs (to my untrained eye). Logic dictates that they are not because one works and sounds loud, and the other does not. I also tried a TI 2N5247 (as recommended on another forum) and that didn't function at all. I did have to move the gate pin to the middle as it was on pin 1. But alas... Any help is appreciated. PS: I did find and order some 2Sk369's in Spain.🙂
