| Is there a Solid State amp that can satisfy a SET guy? @mglik , have you ever found your answer? | |
| Vfet / SIT Amplifiers @sp33ls ha ha, but it is not about measurements to see if it is built right as I think your amp looks to be built more than right. I did go a bit through the forum and I am tempted to build the same amp...I sure have plenty of tokin devices to d... | |
| Vfet / SIT Amplifiers Also, I wanted to ask if you posted any harmonic profiles and THD+n figures above 1W on any of the forums. | |
| Vfet / SIT Amplifiers @sp33ls , Awesome! Super happy for your experience and I like the quality of your build. rottalpha on AK and DIYa.. aka Atelier Hi-Fi on the tube | |
| Vfet / SIT Amplifiers mjw25a, FW_SIT3 2nd harmonic is significantly dominant over the rest of the higher order harmonics. I do not believe that any more dominance of the 2nd would add any benefit. I have studied this quite a bit...on the bench with a proper audio anal... | |
| Vfet / SIT Amplifiers hi @fiesta75 the B-2X is a really nice amplifier indeed. I have compared in the sense that I do have a couple of B-2Xs amps and I am well aware of their sonic qualities but my units are not fully restored yet and it would be immature to state an o... | |
| Vfet / SIT Amplifiers just to ground on reality a bit, If you have not fully restored these units, you are really hearing the impact of aging on these units and comparing that is really subjective. Simply getting the ~45 years old amplifiers stable enough to power on ... | |
| Vfet / SIT Amplifiers Like he said ^^^^^ | |
| Vfet / SIT Amplifiers you got me at the audiophile fuses :) Thanks, but I will keep my SIT-3 original for more than one reason | |
| Vfet / SIT Amplifiers re: "It's really odd that the contemporary top of the line amplifier sounds worse than 45 year old piece." Not add at all and your expereince is not unique. I withnesed various astute audiophiles having similar reaction and favoring Vfet amps ove... | |
| Vfet / SIT Amplifiers Your findings and comparison with the Accuphase do not surprize me and others reported similar expereinces. Enjoy your vfet amps. They are true treasures. I would not be surprized if we see an Accuphase A-47 coming up for sale soon :) | |
| Vfet / SIT Amplifiers Do you have a B-1 and / or N7? | |
| Vfet / SIT Amplifiers @kitr let us know. but do not be surprised if your friend ends up selling his Accuphase after that session.....my friend ended up selling his A-65 after a similar experience with a vfet amp. | |
| Vfet / SIT Amplifiers Hi @kitri I am glad to hear you have the Hitachi sorted out 👍 I also want to point out that it is possible to make the amp sound worse than they actually did when new, if critical components ate not replaced with proper replacements. That said, yo... | |
| Vfet / SIT Amplifiers @thebiglebowski, not sure I follow.The AN M7 looks like a state of the art preamp, which I would not mind owning, but it sure is not a vfet based preamp. ECC803S x2, 6072 x2 (Phono)6072 x4 (Line)EZ81 x1 (Rectification) perhaps you are thinking o... |
