Vfet / SIT Amplifiers


Are there Vfet amplifier owners on this forum?

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

Yes, thought it might be of interest as it’s a current production (albeit very low numbers) amp which can be purchased right now. I believe only about 5 made per year.

Hello guys,

 

I need your informed opinions please 😊

 

I will soon acquire an Sony ta-N7b power amp (my dream), it was completely restored about a year ago in Paris Seine et Marne. (excepted big filter capacitors)

I'm also on a second hand speakers opportunity, it's a pair of Pioneer/Tad S-2ex.

Do you know this speakers ?

Would that be a good match with the Sony? 

 

I thank you in advance.

Friendly.

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.
