Supply and installation service for two (2) Lundahl LL3727 output transformers for Elekit TU8850.
The quality of a tube amplifier’s OPTs is extremely important, especially so for single-ended amplifiers. Design is all important as an air gap in the transformer is needed to prevent transformer core saturation, which would cause audible distortion and other problems. Herein lies the challenge: having an air gap lowers the inductance, which compromises low-frequency response yet to increase the inductance requires adding more windings, which adversely affects the high-frequency response.
Sweden's Lundahl is a specialist designer and manufacturer of high performance transformers.
