WTB matched pair of LSK170 or 2SK170

[dodog]

I'm looking to build the amp camp amp and need a matched pair of either LSK170 or 2SK170 Jfets. A quad would be better (can never hurt to have spares). Anyone in the US selling these?

May I ask how much for what quantity ?

Here is a screenshot of the prices they quoted me in an email.
I also inquired about the production of the 2SJ74's but I haven't heard anything back yet.
I did read a news update from the company that it is supposed to happen this year sometime but no word as to exactly when.

Thanks the lsj74 has been promised since 2006 so do not hold you breath . I started a thread about it and still waiting for news since dec of 12 . Interesting the higher idss are cheaper !

Yes, I wish I had saved that report I had just saw it within the last 48 hours, now I can't seem to find it.
It may have been the same news report you had seen as Dec. 2012 rings a bell.

If I find out more I will surely let everyone know.

I should have updated this thread a long time ago. Sorry about that. FWIW, I went the way of Spencer at fetaudio (no affiliation):

All parts arrived quickly and he was a breeze to work with. I wouldn't hesitate in using his services again.
