I have a NOS Philco output transformer p/n 32-7078 as used on the K-17 and H-13 speakers. Using a variac, I determined the turns ratio to be about 65:1 that gives an impedance ratio of about 4525:1. Pretty low considering the .62 ohm impedance of the K-5 voice coil. I just happened to have an 8 ohm coil the right diameter but, the thing is to long. Also 8 ohms is a little too much.

So, I removed about one half the turns and shortened the coil form.
