Revised quote for upgraded core: £36 ea + vat. Less 15% if we can get 5 pairs.

OK, put me down for a pair please.
I've been thinking of revamping mine into a proper enclosure for some time and replacing the MOT's as the same time.
Once I have the new chokes I can donate the MOT's to a forum regular for just postage costs.

Not sure how to interpret that Ray - does it mean you are thinking about it?

I too am deciding if I need any more.
I have 2 pairs of the smaller hamonds one pair unused, but can't help wondering if ?
If the laminations do effect the sound like an output transformer, I would prefer amorphous or nanocrystaline !!

BTW, I have confirmed that the 3.5A rating is the continuous operating figure and not the saturation current. Very Big MoFo if you have the sinks for it

Hi Ian
these tentative GBs can be quite entertaining if some of the wouldbe start ups on DIYA are anything to go by.
Have you thought about a cutoff point for waiting...if there has been no further interest by the end of November can you let me have the supplier details.

I'll give them a miss Ian
I may well try and wind a pair myself
I have 4 amorphous cores that I should test and chokes would a good starting point

As soon as we get to 5 pairs I’m ordering. Note that these are open frame - a bell cover is £3.50 extra. I can collect them but if you are any distance from Huddersfield there will obviously be postage as well.
So please copy and paste and add your name / quantity:
Ian: 2 pairs

Someone on PFM wants a pair so we have critical mass
Ed and Phil: I presume you will need them posting?

Thanks to Ian for arranging this purchase.
Ian, the money has been transferred, should be in your account in a couple of hours.
