I think k2 over k3 is too heavy, mostly Nelson prefers mostly k2 12dB higher k3.
What is your impression of the sound?

I made the DEFiSIT circuit step by step. First the OS only, with still not the best matching.
One channel gives 1.3A and one 1A, so better than nothing.... 🙂)
When I heard the OS only with the pre doing all gain. I could hear already fine details my other amps do not produce.
When I added the J-Fet front end buffer the sound was of great lucidity and attractive but a bit bodiless.
Adding the Cinemag the body was added, fine details seem a bit vanished, but the whole balance is much better.
Now hearing sessions with the different amps at home......🙂
As always you hear your records with a new ear.
Stage and position of instruments is very nice.
Of course this is only a chaotic prototype build, but this is what I like most.
😀😀
When you see the picture you will see that you have no chance to clone it. My builds still look like the wiring under the board of our electric railway for children,brand Märklin in the 1950th.
It worked, but nobody saw how it looked. So you get today a seldom insight.😀
I am very eager to see what kind of circuit Nelson will bring us with the eBay SITs.
And as always thanks to Nelson and ZenMod.

Wasn't it you who opened this lovely thread with pictures, details and explanations and simulations.......
Do you remember?

No,nothing!
This circuit is great,no plop when switching off or on and no hum,
I suppose Nelson forgot some parts doing this!

A hybrid between M2 and SIT with some PP, current driving characteristics. That's gotta be tasty. Hope they have one at the next California Audio Show to hear, although the stuff is usually Pass Labs rather than First Watt. The Zen audio guys usually bring the SIT amps.
Hockey pucks , being sooooo wild beasts , simply can't be tamed with current sensing Hall IC , without resorting to additional amplification stage (in bias servo) ;
for them , I opted for different solution , shown in F4 Beast.... thread
this one is for exploring same approach - no source resistors , and in that arrangement even regular Papamosfets (240/9240) are pretty wild .....
we'll see (confirm) in a week or so
