Many different Output Transformers transformers for sale.
Latest Update to this page :- August 2107.
transformers-massed-for-sale-10-dec-08.jpg
This page give full information for type numbers OP1 to OP16, and very brief information for OP17 to OP58. 

Between 2008 and now, 2017, I sold most of the popular OPTs for PP KT8 but I still have 90% of the many
different types unsold. The number of people who have ask me for a pair of OPTs has dwindled to less than one a year.

If anyone wants an OPT, they should email me at
my-email-address.GIF
I may or may not have something that suits their requirements.

Many of the transformers I have may require air gap to be altered, varnishing, holding brackets for mounting on a chassis, wire leads
and painting and labelling. I quoted prices after 2008 which included costs of the wire, iron, packing, and labour involved to allow a DIY hobbyist
to just bolt the transformer to the chassis after unpacking the item.

I do not have any prices here for anything I have for sale now, and I am not prepared to do any additional work mentioned above.

If anyone wants anything they see, they can make an offer which I may or may not accept. This will proove to me whether someone is keen to
make an amplifier or not, and not just abusing me by expecting me to sell anything for less than the scrap metal value.
Freight will have to be considered.
Any DIY hobbyist must already have sufficient skills and workshop facilities.
 
EXAMPLE 1 :-
Here are pictures of the last set of output transformers. OP22, sold February 2011 with a pair of 1.9H chokes...
2xop22+2x2hchokes-bench2-feb2011.jpg
The picture shows the pair of OP22 on the left plus a pair of filter chokes on the
right sold in Feb 2011 to a customer who is building a stereo amp with 4 x EL34
in each channel.
There are multiple leads to the OPT for Secondary speaker winding,  Two Primary windings, one with 75% of turns
for anode, and other for 25% of turns for cathode for CFB.  There are 25% turns from anode winding for bootstrapping
the driver stage.
Support brackets are made using 3mm thick aluminium plates and 5mm threaded rod bolts. The OPT have labels indicating
connections. A thick coat of black paint has been applied.

EXAMPLE 2 :-
30W OPT with C-cores, mounted inside octagonal steel steel pots with polyester casting resin. The pot was made by
hand on bench and top fastened to sides with pop rivets. The inside joins of metal work were sealed with silicone
before filling each metal pot with concrete using 50% slow cure casting resin and 50% find dry sand.
The OPT was used for a pair of EL34 with 50% UL taps.

List of OP1 to OP56 for hi-fi use :-
Most of the OPT have only two ways to arrange multiple secondary windings for RLa-a : 4r0 with all sec parallel,
or RLa-a : 16r0, with 1/2 of secs in series with other 1/2 of secs.
For PP use, it is best to use RLa-a : 5r5 ratio, eg, 3k1 : 5r5 with all secs parallel, and all speakers above 3r0
will work OK. For SE use the secs are in series which gives 775r : 5r5. and all speakers above 3r0 work OK.
Other tubes than listed may be used but outcome is determined by clever appraisal of data to get high amount
of class A po with low Fsat for hi-fi. Triode PP AB1 always gives less max Po but same initial class A Po.
Use of SE triode gives lowest max Po.
