transformer info?

[bluesman60]

i shorted out my stereo amp project and smoked the transformer.could someone please tell me how i go about determining what i need as a replacement...thanks

Hi bluesman60,

based on your information all I can say is you need - a new transformer
If you told us what amp this is (a schematic would be great), we could be more specific.

Cheers,
Albert

information

So is that two El84s per channel? That would mean yu need a transformer made for a pair of them.

[Albert Kreuzer]

Enzo: I think it is a stereo amp with two EL84, two 12AX7 and one 6CA4 (aka EZ81) per channel. One PT to feed them all.

Terry: Are the rectifier tubes parallel or does it have separate HV secondaries?
And can you tell us what brand/model the amp is? Maybe someone here has a schematic.

Cheers,
Albert

When you hit the reply button, below the answer box there is a sign "additional options". Select "manage attachments" and follow the instructions. If that doesn't work, send it to me and I'll put it up for you.
