Basically this:
Inverting one of the secondary windings on the transformer. Or will that result in no output?
Nice idea but if u try there will be no sound. If you want to play with SE using F6 i think is a nice idea anc quite simple, just disconnect the transformer secondary for the top fet and replace with a jumper wire. So the bottom fet drives the output, and top fet just acts as a load. Not an aleph of course so won't be much power but will be pure single ended ...... Edit: leave the unused secondary alone or can parallel for better drive to bottom fet.

Hi mos57 and generg. What is the output impedance of the opposed drain commplementary VFet amplifiers? mos57, I and maybe others may wish to read your patents and/or their published applications.look here mos57 was very active.....🙂🙂

even Nelson asks how does it sound.....🙂
Best regards

I am slow. Dabbling with SuperSymmetry.Antoinel,
Have you fired up the F6 yet?
I have a proto combination balanced amp of STASIS [THRESHOLD S/150] and SuperSymmetry. I can only imagine the ultraperformance potential of a STASIS plus Ultrasymmetry!I'm having my towel handy ;
just waiting for Vogon ship , going to study Ultrasymmetry

as Pa sez , that needing completely different Universe
or , maybe not , if starting from scratch
(S/150 not being scratch)

Yes. S/150, F6, Teaser F6CC, Funny^6, F7 are tools for combo studies.; to sharpen my subjective hearing.Low hanging fruit.
more like Pa's I/V stage
problem is how to implement rest of (power side ) circuit

Another thing I thought about:
If I've understood correctly the purpose of the transformer is to act as a phase splitter. If you already have a balanced source, would it be possible to skip the transformer, the feedback and just connect the inputs directly?

another way to have Silencer

Can't seem to escape the curse of the silencer...

Is the result the same if we invert one of the +- sides or is the transformer more than just a phase splitter in the F6?

ya can see those 1KuF as shortie , for AC signal
so while you're trying to feed upper gate , lower 1K is silencing it
while you're trying to feed lower gate , upper 1K is silencing it
you have one spare winding in quadfillar ; so , having more than several ways to skin balanced cat

Hmm, the pursuit of knowledge continues...
Would this work or have I forgotten something this time too? 😉
And on another note, If I've understood correctly the F6 has very much in common with the JLH / PLH except that now a transformer splts the signal. And that the "sound tuning" is about letting one side doing more or less ( or equal ) load of the other side.
If one would go pure SE and disconnect the trafo from one of the parts would it be enough to connect a jumper wire on the then ccs side? Would be fun to build one and compare against my F2.

If you are looking to have a current source (high output impedance) amplifier,
then it would work. If I were doing that, I would say you can eliminate R2
and run the primaries in series from input to ground.
