Specifications

  • All parts are guaranteed to be new and authentic (Linear Systems are new, Toshiba are new-old-stock)
  • Guaranteed matched to within ±0.2mA. Tested at 10V / 22'C. For more information visit the JFET matching information page.
  • All JFETs are grade B/BL (6-12mA).  You can now choose from an Idss sub-range. Learn more about how to choose the right Idss for your project
  • Manufacturer specifications: LSK170 | LSJ74 | 2SK170 | 2SJ74
  • Note that any letters or numbers printed on Linear Systems JFETs do not refer to  grade, they are batch identification. All grades have identical physical housing. You cannot tell the grade by looking at the JFET itself. The only way to know the grade is by testing for Idss. 

Quantity Limits

  • N Quads: Limit of 8 units per customer per month 
  • P Quads/NP Quads: Limit of 2 units per customer per month 
  • NP Octets: Limit of 1 units per customer per month

These JFETs are provided as a service to the do-it-yourself audio hobbyist community, and it's important that we can always keep these parts in stock for small orders from hobbyists. Please only buy what you need. 

If you need more than the above quantity for a particular build, please email contact@diyaudiostore.com

    Excellent

    I'm very happy with my purchase . I have used them in my new Hiraga Les Monstre and the overall sound is amazing

    B1 - LSK170

    I've just built B1 around those. Haven't auditioned it yet, but the oscilloscope says it's basically perfect 10Hz-500kHz. I'm very happy so far, I'll probably come back for more.
    Cheers!

    Toshiba JFets N-Ch/P-Ch-quartet

    I have ordered these original Toshiba 2SK170/2SJ74 - JFets (BL-range) a few weeks ago.
    Today I measured them with great results - they are matched very, very well!
    Delivery was fast. They have been packed extremely well! Thanks a lot to the diyAudio-store!
    On the pics some measurements - you know with different temperatures and test-equipment
    you can get different values - very good matching job!
    Cheers

    All on perf board

    Many thanks to Elena and diyaudio for sorting out customs issue. Excellent service.
    Where would I be without these jfets?
    Currently underway with BA1/2 pre with 610/9610 headphone buffer nailed on, 27V rails, 2.4R degeneration, 450/550 regulation from Waynes Pearl 1 circuit. Balanced xlr input only from my balanced DAC, 4 gang tkd pot. Nearly done, just got to connect boards, psu, pot etc. I can alter source resistors, load resistance and may try extending feedback loop to buffer output.
    Also F5 in a galaxy box (!), 500VA, 4 x 47000 caps, 37V rails, cascoded jfets, 240/9140 mosfets just to be different, soft start, yet to fit heatsinks and audio boards, should probably renew my eyebrow insurance before I switch this one on.
    Pearl 1 MC phono stage using three LSK170 quads.
    BA3 pre, mje 15034/5 cascoded jfets, 35v rails, 510/9510 mosfets, biassed to over 300mA, multiple source and load resistors for adjustment, TL431 psu regulation for easy adjustment of supply voltages.
    But can you tell which one is which?

    LSK 170 , 2SJ74

    These Fets are the best I ever tested and heared in my MC Preamp. They are very well matched and they give the highest amplification with the lowest Noise. Thanks for fast delivery to Germany.

    Matched Jfets

    Received the matched jfets fast. Have not used them in a personal project yet. But glad to be able to get jfets again. I prefer solid state for its reliability vs tube. I look forward to building a turn table record player with moving coil pre pre amp for my line level preamp instead of a Step Up Transformer (SUT) All battery to avoid AC hum etc...
