I know that from a practical point of view it probably doesn't matter, because some transformers have the secondary wires twisted all over each other and doesn't seem to be a problem, but here goes anyway as this is a high power amp...
Is it ok to twist the emitter and collector (basically the rails with more current and so more prone to mutual inductance...) legs of high power output transistors (200W range) over each other so that they're right on top of each other and separated only by a thin layer of PTFE ? Won't there be any problems of mutual inductance on the feedback or whatever circuitry ?
I'm asking this because I'm finally about to install some replacement transistors for an old high end amp and the replacements have differ on the order of the connections and I don't like the idea of putting jumpers and cutting tracks on the PCB as I frequently redo things to improve them...
Thanks in advance
