Robinhood output transformers?

mctavish · 14th May 2010, 08:40 PM

Can anyone speak from personal experience about the performance of these transformers? I am building a DHT amp with 45's or 2a3's and I have narrowed my choices on outputs. I am torn between a set from Jack at Electraprint or a pair of these Magnequest Robinhoods, both available for around $200. I realize the Robinhoods are open frame but mounting under the chassis is not a problem, and my goal is midrange sound quality also, not 20hz response, so these need not be huge. Any recommendations on these two?

I have parafeed Robin Hoods in my 45 amp. I have never made a comparison by inserting other OPTs, but it's the amp I come back to after building or borrowing others.
