Vfet / SIT Amplifiers


Are there Vfet amplifier owners on this forum?

If yes, what do you own and what are your impressions?

You're right about the B-2, I'm not sure what condition the amp was in. I need to get her properly restored and redo the test. As for the TA-N7, the C-1 and the B-3s, I was told they were fully restored by my tech bloke, so I believe they really were restored. I can't be sure, of course, but I have no reason not to believe him.

So I built the DEFiSIT-based amp with a pair of my Tokin SITs.

Holy.....

It may be only 20-30WPC, but the bass is astounding.

It's hard to describe, but the music is simply more immersive than any other amp I've tried.

@sp33ls ,

Awesome!

Super happy for your experience and I like the quality of your build.

Also, I wanted to ask if you posted any harmonic profiles and THD+n figures above 1W on any of the forums.

Oh, yeah, hey rottalpha! Small world. :)

I'd be lying if I said I wasn't tempted by the C-1, but my Pioneer Exclusive C3 is just so gorgeous that it would be hard to let go. Plus, all the work I've put into recapping and cleaning... :0

I've not posted any measurements, no. I'd love to get mine measured, tho. Just to verify I built the thing 100% correctly (aside from test point measurements).
