Also - good buddy's GF 'n soon to be SWMBO iz big time car tire rep so wuz in winners circle getting picture taken with Dario and little red car. Sigh - it's a hard life having to hang out with the race car driver and owners crowd......

Happy birthday to you, my friend!
Which reminds me, my brother has it now.
Maybe I should call him up.
Just by coincidence I was checking out your Aleph 9 thread.
Are you still using it?

Yes, of course!
This is driving now my Eminence Beta 15A spreakers in OB.
Have you had a chance to build anything else for comparison?
I am thinking of building up one of these but possibly using laterals.

In addition, I have built F4, ZV9 and a secret wonder-weapon.
(thanks to Generg and Papa.)
F4 does not play without proper pre-amp.
With lateral FETs now I'm not built yet.

It is time for me to start getting serious.
I don't think anyone has done an Aleph with laterals so I suppose someone has to do it.
It may as well be me.

Forgive me, you know my English is terrible and I do not understand electronics.
But something I read as if the laterals were not really the Aleph topology is chosen. Because VGS lover?

Yes of course, laterals have lower Vgs, but I don't see why you could not use them.
Just need to adjust the circuit slightly to accept them.
Still probably use IRFP240 for current source.

I'm afraid it's more than my abilities.
But maybe that just do not trust myself.
I will attack it and let you know what needs to be done.
Just need to finish my speakers first.
Hopefully have the speakers finished in the next 2 weeks.

done several times
even by Mighty ZM
but you probably know that I'm always trying another one , in same test bed ........ so I don't have it
take xconductance in account , Vgs difference is irrelevant , as long you have OLG under control
conclusion - Aleph with laterals - boiled water .......... and difference comparing to IRFP150 isn't worth any hassle
but - Jfet FE is very well worth the hassle
NB- one IRFP150 instead of 2 IRFP240

OLG should be lower with laterals
What does boiled water mean?
EDIT: Even though you have already done this I would not mind doing it myself purely to satisfy my curiosity and possibly learn something.
Besides that I have a tonne of laterals lying around.

use lowest source resistors you can (in output)
use more output pairs
squeeze as much gain you can from FE - minimal source resistors , same as paralleled jfets (as in Aleph J or Mighty ZM's Mighty Babelfish J

boiled water - yesterdays news - reinventing the wheel
