Sony vFET Amplifier Part 2

[mr_whocares]

Well, we're talking about the kit of parts I'm putting together so I want to annoy as few people as possible.

any update when/if a kit of the parts will be available? 🙂
regards

Not really. Any reasonable variation is shielded by cascodes.

Varias, will we be able to order without the Jfets? Many people around here already have those and could save a quite a few dollars. You could do the supplemental kit without the jfets and people who need them just order at the same time from the store.

My progress report. Mine as well post this before I try and smoke the VFETs. She weighs in at 42#. Wish me luck!

Is the the diyaudio psu board? What capacitors are those? That is a nice mounting scheme!

 

[wdecho]

Cantilope has gave his blessing allowing me to answer questions for him. Yes he did use the store PS boards. We both ordered the same parts for our amps together. I do not remember the exact brand of caps but they are nothing special, just good relatively inexpensive 15K uf brands. Tucked under the boards are 4 40uf motor run caps. If you have to know the exact ones I will have to go to my purchase order to find out.

He did a tremendous job fitting two transformers and two PS into one case. He is the first I have heard that has built essentially mono V-fet amps. I will almost bet that Might Zen's build will be something similar if not monos. He took Zen's advice about the wire wrapping as well. Very professional neat clean looking build. Mine is an ugly box but she is sweet inside.

 

[neoinc]

1 supplemental kit if i could get an essential kit please.

 

[fishball79]

2 supplemental kits if i can get 2 essential kits please

 

[WBS]

It looks like we're over 50 kits.

For those who need transformers, how many of you would be interested in building it as dual mono? Could the store order the transformers from Plitron for either dual mono or stereo?

I'm wondering what the cost difference would be between the two.
