All the best with the new amp, Mr. Pass. Will you be sending a sample of the production F6 to 6moons for review?

Can I add that it's interesting that the production F6 can do 25w into 8 Ohm and the DIY F6 can do 30w into 8 Ohms.

Among many things that really entertains me here , is that Papa has always managed to surprise us...even when we thought that there's nothing new in some area...he proved us wrong :)

Why? Well, the details..the devil is always in the details..muahahahahaaa

Oh, once again, Thanks Nelson! :)

Does this mean, that IRFP should sound better in the old F6 topology, or only in this new enhanced one?

Nelson, I remember you were saying that other people proffered MOSFETs over SSs, what about you?

The IRFP240 will sound better in the "new" topology because it's largely the
same. The clear indication here is that for this specific circuit, high Drain
resistance Fets are generally preferred, but I wouldn't assume that would
apply to every listener and his system. The differences in topology are
mostly different voltage regulators. Other differences are simply part values.

As a Mosfet version has already been floated on this forum, you should have
no problem building one of these.

As to my personal preference, I enjoy listening to the differences without
much worrying about which is really better. If you build both, you won't
have to worry about it either.

Of course I will be sending one to Srajan at 6moons, and he will probably
share his observations about the differences.

:cool:

just to refresh your memory (wrote about that before ) ........

I had that bad luck to take a peek at folder named Design Permutations , consisted of 6 folders and ook 200 files in them


go figure ......... I have nasty hunch that Pa added few dozens to that ....... :devilr:
