Well, since I will not experiment with many of them I'm  kind of narrowing down the scope of the amps that I would like to get. In 70s-80s break there was a short period of time when Yamaha and Sony made top of the line amps around V-FET output transistors. The V-FET are very different little bitches as the run a very-very high bias, I think like 20V or 25V that make them very much operate like a triode in A1. They shall sound much different then what ordinary would be expected from transistors. If I get “better” SS amp for MiniMe then I would like to try a full-blown V-FET. They are usually big but still manageable… I do not think that V-FETs are used anymore. Spectral said that this 360 amp use V-FETs but I do not know if it is true.
