Yes I’ve heard of these vacuum tubes too; seems like a good idea!
No they are rubbish as a vacuum tube amplifier, look pretty but a gimmick.

...well I wonder if John could design something similar later when the Tube option comes round ...the idea seems ‘sound’!
Rjpcardoso and Steve,
VFETS will follow the MDAC2 - which is rapidly approaching completion - followed by FDAC.
The highest build MDAC2 PCB can be transferred with upgraded PSU etc. into FDAC chassis.
The VFET's are a much easier project then the MDAC2 - and will be out later this year.
Advanced Detox has now been integrated into the Advanced versions of MDAC2 / FDAC.
The MDAC2 has been designed to support the digital / clock interface for the DAC Array version of the VFETs (where the DAC array is part of the VFET Gain stage. the VFET will be offered in Analogue of Digital input versions (user upgradable).
From the lack of updates here and on Facebook I assume John is currently working on other projects.
I just don't see anything John is in process of completing that will outperform my soon to be completed system
otherwise I'd still be staying on board till the bitter end.
I don't think there is a DAC at ANY price point that will touch the sonic performance of the MDAC2... I really don't... and I'll stand by this claim...
John,
Put remember to send CM3 card to Rune on your todo list
