Nickel Ferrite Amorphous Output Transformer

Since I have more time this week, let me share some pictures of the 2 sets of poison that had gone to their new homes. :)

  • 1st pair - 2.5K:8R/16R for 2A3, using L01 (oversided) quad C core, luxury stuff! 
  • 2nd pair - 3.0/3.5K: 8R/16R for 300B, using L01 quad C core, tasteful!
  • Both nickel ferrite amorphous cores!

Depending on the packaging material, a layer of foam added to the binding posts to protect the pins.
Wrapped in foam, protected by another layer of foam before going into the 1st box.

1st box goes into the 2nd box, with lots of foam protection.
Output transformer - pair 1 - Singapore
Output transformer - pair 2 - Singapore again!
