Would I regret buying a used F8 (from a dealer)?

and that, for an amp not so good as M2 is

Would the dealer regret selling it? 😛

LOL!

NP also 'cheated' (in a good way) with M2, because it's more like a 30/50watt amp rather than 25/40.

Runs reasonably 'cool' too for Class A.

Push-pull Class A tends to be more efficient than single-ended....

Yes, the J2 was made for 12 years, this from a company committed to
about 1 year for products.

Look out for preowned J2s that owners are upgrading to F8s...

just to correct our Jim - they didn't run out of semis for J2, Papa meant it's time for new amp

F8 practically using same semis as J2

Does this mean Greedy Boyz can expect an official J2 schematic soon? 😀
