Power Supply Options
Aside from the clunky factor of two plug ins, can two separate SPMS supplies work?
If so, how about using two of these:
WSU150-0560 Triad Magnetics | Mouser
$7.25 X2 is fairly inexpensive for 500 mA of current. Extra filter caps are already available on Wayne's board.
Clean things up a bit with some inductors in series with the V+ and V-:
2 of these with some 24ga wire turns on the core (swiped from the Noir design, thank you Mark J):

The high current output BA2018 config could use two of the Mean Well 18V, 18W GST series, which already include series inductors on their cords:

It would be interesting to compare the above to something like the Whammy regulated supply or a 36VDC SMPS with a virtual ground adapter circuit like the Goldpoint:

Universal PSU board is designed primarily for high current, unregulated power amp use. If using for BA2018, seems like adding regulation to it would be a good thing.
Yes, weight of board, size and thickness of traces, oversize snap in capacitors, etc., all are major overkill for this application.

Ok, in that case, what about this one: Dual/Bipolar LV-Reg

This is the exact power supply board and transformer I used on my build, works excellent!
I used exactly that transformer and that Power supply. Perfect. 6L6 suggested both to me with original pre-store boards.

TOSHIBA 2SK209GR measurements
Hello members,
this late afternoon I thought that I could test/measure some JFets. I got most of my parts for Waynes -BAF2018 -linestage. Still waiting for the boards (hanging around at the customs).
I tested the first batch of 10 TOSHIBA 2SK209GR from the reel (I did not buy a complete reel!).
My measurements are really promising! No real need for matching - but I will do it.

9 0,43 0,13 16,6 2,96 44,2
10 0,44 0,12 17,1 2,94 44,2
I don:t know how exactly my measurements are?
But the TOSHIBAS seem
to be very consistent from the reel....

Attachments
Looks like an Alps, R27? Available at Parts Express and other suppliers. not sure what is attached, some kind of terminal block thingy?
