Hello,

As per subject line, looking for beefy PTs in the 200-400VA range. I like Antek products and of course I'm aware of Hammond and Edcor. Looking for other alternatives as sometimes I can't find that elusive part that fills the requirements exactly. I usually prefer toroids for power input, need to run on 120V/60Hz mains. Must be shipping to Canada, at least within reasonable shipping costs. I know, I know, that's where it hurts for transformers... :-) Also, if members have trannies in the 320-350V secondary ranges for sale PM me.

Thanks in advance.
-Joris

A lot of winders have stopped winding in the past few years.
If you have the means and time, Dave is also a great choice: https://intactaudio.com

Thanks Chip for your reply. Yes, sadly winders seem a dying breed...
Looks like both Heyboer and intactaudio are custom made and over my budget though...

Thanks a lot Ivan, this one gets bookmarked.
Wow a one-stop shop for tube DIYers! That's the kind of "hidden gem" I'm always looking for :-)

I found a couple promising units, request for information sent!
