DIY Sony VFET pt 1

Haven't waded through the thread, but is there any hope that Sony 2SK60 or 2SJ18 would work in some version of kit? I have a few of these harvested.

OOPs! I just read NP's document and it says versions for 2SK60 and 2SJ18 will be made, Thanks!

If I get parts and make successful amp, I will likely gift the rest to other DIY. It looks like a project I can handle after shockingly I made a working Pass Korg B1 as my first DIY Project (been using it for over a year now).

@Papa pass
Why did you decide to go with a current gain stage for the the final project and not a common source voltage gain stage?

Was it a cost descion, ie do follower stages lend themselves better to switching supplies. compatibility issue, followers work better with more speakers. Sound quality, do these vfets work better as a follower?
