I'm currently using the trafo tranny and opts with a 300B SS rectifier in lieu of the 6ax5 and it doesnt get hot, warm but definitely not hot. I'm using an older wine crate...paid 55$ for the contents, the box came free! Yellow_Light_Colorz_PDT_06 oh BTW I live in Germany and Boris knew that, the tranny came already wired for 220!
I am looking a JE Labs 300b and will probably use the Trafomatic company again.
