#1 Transformers.

Post by pre65 »

I've been trying to sort out 2 transformers for the Mosfet amp project.

I've always been led to believe that toroidal transformers are preferable, so that's all I search for.

I might have access to a pair of 15 amp frame transformers, are they really "worse" than toroids ?

I've found an interesting article comparing toroidal and EI transformers for hi-fi usage.

If I have understood the salient points properly I will go ahead and get the two 15 amp EI transformers I've been offered.
