If those two transformers were used in a "old" PP amp, then they will have a CT already. So I don't understand when you said:

My OPT doesn't have CT so i wondered that will it have good sound?

And now you say:

PSU: propose DIY, OPT: DIY.

So you want to wind your own OPT's? Winding your own OPT's is quite involved! I would not reccomend it for someone just staring out. You may find yourself wishing you had bought them instead!
The OPT is one of the most important parts of any tube amp! You need to get that right! Very difficult for a beginner.

As far as winding/re-winding your power transformer :no: :att'n: :hot:
Don't do it!

Cheers
Wayne :)
