Default Leftover transformers

Hi all

Ok, so I have some leftover transformers that are looking for a project and I donīt know what to make with them. Do you have any suggestions?
I have just compleated a KT88 based amp so this is no option.

I would like to use them in an stereo integrated amp.

Power Transformer:

Primary:
230VAC

Sec:
1x390V 0,5A
2x5V 2A
2x6,3V 4A
2x3,15-0-3,15V 2A
1x40V 0,1A

Output transformers:

PP 4K

Cheers

You could consider a fixed bias KT88 triode push pull amp; will give you some 15 watts of power.

It screams push-pull EL34 with fixed bias to me. That's probably not a heck of a lot different than your previous KT88 project though.

Single ended 300B, 2A3, 45, etc? Can use a choke input to get a lower voltage, or tune the B+ with the cap. Or do SE with a pentode.

300B!! That transformer would be perfect for my latest 300B SET adventure.

Don't know about that power xfmr, but that 4K P-2-P OPT would work nicely with 6BQ6GA/GTB finals.

Hi taj

Yes! this is what I was thinking too but would 4K OPTīs work? You donīt happen to have a stereo integrated PP EL34 schematic somewhere?

Cheers
