Tek 585A monster tube power transformer

pjanda1 · 14th April 2011, 08:36 PM

I don't know the specs, but this old 'scope transformer is about as mean as tube power transformers get. Millet doesn't list this one, but this gives you an idea of what it is: Tek power transformers The 585A should be bigger than those. This isn't mine, but it is the same model. It lit nearly 100 tubes, so it could be great for an OTL. Or just a big tube amp of any sort. I thought for awhile that I might get around to using this monster, but it's looking less likely. I'm not going to pull it out of the chassis unless you want it. Its heavy. $50 +shipping. It might run a decent sized amp for 1,000 years.

The post below inspired me to bump this. How about $40 shipped?
