Hello,
I have four 1000VA transformers w/37.5V secondaries (bought from apexjr), and I am going to use them with eight Marchand amps, PM224s. Four amps will be used per channel with an acitve XO. Should I buy four more transformers so each amp will have it's own dedicated power supply or will one transformer per pair of amplifiers provide enough high current output? Basically I want to get the most out of this project but I don't want to waste money. Will four transformers per channel pull too much AC mains current to blow a 15A-20A breaker? I would like to use inrush limiters on the mains input, so maybe I could get away with four transformers per channel, any thoughts on that? Can anyone recommend rectifier diodes for this spec transformer?
Any inputs are appreciated.
Thank You,
Digi
