waiting for the power trany, need advise on output iron

[justinsweber]

The ST35 power tranny and choke are on their way.
Im seriously debating outing with James or Transcendor instead of decor.
Between Transcendor or James, which would you chose and why?
With the 12x8 I can't fit the CXSE Edcors... Love the perforce, just not the size :-).

I ended up going with the Transcendars for a couple reasons; they are perceived to be a really nice value by many builders and they are made in the good old USA. James transformers, while looking nicer, aren't really available in the U.S. and you have to order them from Taiwan with a healthy shipping cost.

The difference isn't huge ($60-70), but you could use those $$ for some nice tweaks like boutique caps, resistors, etc.

After going through all of the posts here and checking some other boards I chose the James transformers over the Trancendars.

That being said, the Trancendars are well thought of and certainly are a good bang for the buck.
