Jumped into the rabbit hole

[dpb703]

I started my journey to build #124. Chassis and boards were delivered today. I was lucky enough to get a set from Taylor Cox. So excellent. My question of the day has to do with power and output transformers. It seems as if Hammond and Mercury Magnetics are the 2 manufacturers that source the twin reverb transformers and choke. Is one better than the other? Seems like Mercury is substantially more expensive.

Thanks,

Dan

Heyboer also makes excellent Fender transformers.

Heyboer makes a Twin power transformer with an extra 6.3v tap to power your relays.
It is also capable of powering either a quad of 6L6s or EL34s.
Give them a call.

Heyboer also makes a PT with 12V tap for relays so you don't need a second transformer, Arlen is a great guy to work with.

I also get my Dumblator PTs from him.

Thier OTs are also very good.
