226+6=232 Ups ans downs but worth the ride

Thanks Spritzer. Those AS-250 trannies were going to a PP 2A3 build that never happened. Now they will find a good home and hopefully sound great!

Hmm, it seems I didn't research the right places. From your past posts Spritzer, you have worked with the LL1630 and 1627. There is a guy on HF that had good luck with the Z565. I'm still fuzzy on the math with this but I have a couple of sets of PP trannies on the shelf. Not sure on the turn ratio for either of them though. From my weak understanding, these are wired in reverse? So this would mean positive to (4/8/16 Ohm) tap, neg to neg (amp inputs), and on the other end, the split phases to the Stax plug. What do you do with the B+ center tap? I'm assuming this will go to your bias board? In the case of a transformer with dual phase inputs (for pentodes), do you tie them together at the stax plug? Is there any other safety built into the transformer circuit or is it directly wired from speaker post-transformer-stax plug? Here is what I've got on hand: AS-250 (Magnequest version of the Acrosound TO-250), ultralinear, 5k, 4/8/16 Ohm taps http://www.clarisonus.com/Archives/Trans/Acro55.pdf Heathkit 51-29, ultralinear, 8k, 4/8/16 Ohm taps I forgot to ask, along with those boards would you have a couple of Stax pro plugs you could part with also?

Thanks guys. Spritzer, I'm not able to PM you it seems (too much of a NOOB around here). I would be interested two of the boards if you can part with them? I intend to pick up a SRD-7 at some point also (if you are parting with the one you are workin on, let me know). Power wise, I have amps ranging from 14-60 watts. Any recommendations on which transformers to try?

I'm looking to build something along the lines of the Stax SRD-7/ Woo Wee but with better iron in a lower turn ratio (maybe 1:10/1:15/1:20). Does anyone have recomendations for iron? Spritzer, do you offer your bias boards still? I'll keep my eye out for s SRD-7 with pro connection but in the mean time this could be a fun project. Thanks!
