• WARNING: Tube/Valve amplifiers use potentially LETHAL HIGH VOLTAGES.
    Building, troubleshooting and testing of these amplifiers should only be
    performed by someone who is thoroughly familiar with
    the safety precautions around high voltages.

Custom wound high voltage high current OPTs, PTs and chokes needed

Are you shure about this ?
2.5k primary, 4 + 8R secondary, 1200V+ at 0.7A, 20Hz-25kHz frequency range, 170-180W

5k primary, 2 + 4R secondary, 1200V+ at 0.35A, 20Hz-25kHz frequency range, 85W (2 OPTs primary used in parallel, secondary series)

7.5k primary, 1.3 + 2.6R secondary, 1200V+ at 0.24A, 20Hz-25kHz frequency range, 60W (3 OPTs primary used in parallel, secondary series)
Low output impedance gives poor coupling.I would suggest two times 5k to 8R+16R and 7.5k to 12R+24R and paralleling the secondary.

Additionally I need Power Transformers covering the following requirements
- primary 240V (!)
the following secondary voltages are required
- 2X 470-0-470V at 0.8A (approx voltage)
- 2x 170-0-170V at 0.3A
- 2x 3.15-0-3.15V at 3A
- 2x 5.1-0-5.1V at 20A (!)

The Power Transformer does not need to be in one core.

if i were to build this, i will separate the high voltages from the filaments supplies,
so: - 2X 470-0-470V at 0.8A (approx voltage) = 1504 va; and
- 2x 170-0-170V at 0.3A = 204 va for a total of 1708 va secondary,
primary volt amperes = 1708/0.6 = 2846 va total
now using an EI M6 cores with 2 inch center leg cores, total stack will be ~ 5 inches and core weight will be around 18kgs...

now for the filaments, 2x 3.15-0-3.15V at 3A
- 2x 5.1-0-5.1V at 20A (!)

total secondary va = 436 va, using a 1 3/4 inch center leg core, stack will be ~ 3 inches and core weight at around 8 kgs...

this is going to be one monstrous amp...
