I thought you got pot (hehe) and you're mebbe disappointed, but, as tactful boy we know you are, didn't say nothing...


This thread (le dernier salon où l'on cause 🙂 ) cannot make me nutz because I am already.
(It could have fullfilled my nutzity, though)

A propos Magura, I remember having visited a site with pics where Magura was doing strange but beaûtiful things in a foundery.
Unfortunately lost the link....

The gallery has gone south, so even if you had the link, it would not be any good.

I am currently as the stage of buying a domain, then the need of somebody whom can and will make a webpage will be the next obstacle.

Steenoe,

where did you get that transformer?

Ahh, you like the rubber suspensions 🙂 The trafo is pulled out of an old Yamaha C50 preamp. It is 36-0-36V. The Yamaha C70 had the same trafo. I just found one more🙂 You can probably find a defective C50/C70 preamp for cheapo somewhere near you.

It's not the faceplate that's of interest, but the rear that differs from standard 😉 Ever seen a box with more redundant holes?
:smash:

Magura 🙂

Looks like someone build and tested a lot of preamps in that case.
Now who would ever do a thing like that, to such a nice case
😕

🙂

Anything needed to be changed on Shunty if I use a 36v-0-36v transformer? Found a 72VCT 50VA transformer that is much smaller than the 250VA 84VCT I found earlier - but I guess 50VA might be too anemic.

I do not need that much gain planning on 5 or 7 - so a lower max voltage swing does not matter.

Still looking for suggestions for good source of EI transformers - only sinker is that I am going to need 240V primary.
