Little Nicky got it wrong........
Pass DIY F4's are F***ING AWESOME!
Yep. It kinda ruins you.
In a good way.
I just disconnected my sub, I don't need it anymore.
Even if my F4 did peak 50W into my speakers it still wouldn't hurt them during movies.
My ear planted in the tweeter and I don't hear an ounce of the static I used to hear.
I'll pick up some matched JAN 12AX7's online.
I only want to run American tubes.

I'm gobsmacked, why does A 25W do so much better than AB 120W?
The world may never know.
It probably has something to do with the 400W PSU and the 220W of standing bias...
Be it because of a logical reason or not, there is something truly special about the F4. I don't know what it is either, but I do know that I could stop building amps now and be happy with my sound.
(Not that I am going to stop building amps... I do that because the journey is it's own reward. But I would not be surprised if years from now, all the experience I will hopefully then have will just prove that the F4 is stupendously good.)
