should the speaker transformer in a model 60B [version 6] be mounted on the left, top or right? i see pictures of it oriented each of those ways. including one in this video from a mister radio. about "restoring" a model 60.

I'm really not sure it matters, as long as it doesn't sit next the wood of cabinet. While audio transformers don't run "hot" I like it pointing down at the chassis... assuming there is room. I'll have to check my two 60s when I get home.

Interesting question.
