Maybe you missed my Post #6530, where I just tried that, showing only the closed-loop amplitude response vs bias. Now here, for the same test conditions, the phase plot from 1kHz to 20kHz, showing some 1deg max delta between different DC bias values.Bob Cordell said:

Yeah. They don't measure as well as some of the more modern stuff, but they sound fantastic! 😀

Unfortunately, no.
Scott, did you see my post a while back asking you if ADI would be interested in making an IC dedicated to high-end audio?
Charles Hansen said:
You mean perhaps something other than just an opamp?
How about a hybrid device? Seems that could get you a long way in the miniaturization department and would likely even be reasonably affordable.

Charles, since you are using this thread to communicate with Scott, I might interject an opinion. I don't think that Scott can help you in any real way, since he does not believe in what you and I do and know. IF you could get Barrie Gilbert or at least one of his circuits with some sort of fet input, then maybe we could all surge forward with a quality chip.
> These Sanyo FET's were only a tiny bit worse than the Toshiba ones at half the Ciss. I wonder if they make P-channel.
Scott,
I searched the Sanyo website as well as Japanese DIY websites, and could not find any P-channel. See :

While there were a few of those sites mentioning the use of 2SK223 (supposedly because of the high Vds rating) as frontend diffpairs, I could not even find a supplier on the net for any of them for small quantities, including 2SK222 (other than the usual Chip Inventory sites).

then hook some fets to the inputs of one of these

isn't that a 'Gilbert" cell ?

http://www.tenfourltd.com/ it's the Sanken/Sanyo arm of bdent.com
Does not have 2SK222 in stock right now, but they'll stock it pretty soon.
http://www.bdent.com/ does have 2SK223 in stock but it's very expensive.
2sk373
If anyone wants to use a high voltage Nch JFET, Toshiba's 2SK373 is still available to buy at around a dollar a piece.
Maybe a bit low on the Yfs at around 4mS and high gate leakage, but noise is good for line level signals.
Well, I think I will stick with cascoding.....

We are approaching the bottom of the barrel in fets. Back several decades. It is OK to use these fets, but there are plenty to be had. They are not on the unavailable list.
Excuse me if this is a silly question, but, why the need for P?
There seem to be some good N channel FETs out there, but they're essentially rejected because they have no P compliment.
Is there no way at all to achieve as good or perhaps even better distortion cancellation using only N devices?

Oh, come on John. Two N-channels with a push-pull transformer have to be at least as good as a complementary pair.
Right?
Right???

Hmmm...
Why not?
Take a look at the first and third quadrants of a B-H loop for a high nickel core. Are they any less complementary than any of the complementary JFET pairs out there?

John, just returned, and results of listening tests were great for discrete complementary - differential, against opamp based designs.
In fact it is only Blowtorch I am interested to compare with. If it is Hamburg, it is not impossible.
Charles Hansen said:
Actually, after doing a little research, it seems that the answer is in fact, "Right."
With regard to distortion cancellation of the complementary differential, John has said "You people worry too much about superficial things."
According to John, the real advantage of complementary differential is "...that it creates two separate signals that are opposed in DC voltage from each other. This gives 2 times the gain, without any phase delay increase."
Ultimately, so does two N-channels with a push-pull transformer.
