What Audio Transformer To Buy?
#6

Pepper,
You may try different secondary connections to get the best operation...loudness and quality. With a 4 ohm secondary impedance you go down the 4 ohm vertical table to get a match close to the theoritical primary tube load impedance. In this case around 18kohm.
So it looks like connections to secondary pins 1 & 3 with one being the ground would give you about 15kohms. Pins 5 & 6 with 5 being ground would give you around 22kohms primary load impedance. Icon_biggrin See what works best for you. Icon_clap
