OPT options for 300B amps

Postby SDS-PAGE » Wed Dec 05, 2007 2:32 pm

Could some of you suggest some good alternatives for OPTs to be used with 9+ watts 300B monoblocks? Ones that I hear are One Electron, Hammond 1627SEA, Tamura, James, Tango, Magnequest, and etc. Plus, where could I source these for reasonable prices. I know where I can get Hammonds and James. Thanks! -Min

The Transcendar 3K, 15W 300B OPTs that appear on E-bay are pretty good, at $150 per pair (and $90 per pair for the smaller 10W 3K and 5K SE OPTs.

The 15 W 3K OPTs are the same size and mounting footprint as a Dynaco A-470 as used in the ST70.

I was not able to find any hits on ebay searching for "Transcendar". What is the seller's name?

Thanks,

Robert

The senner's e-bay name is ggaet.

He doesn't have any current listings, this is a link to the unsold 15W 3K 300B OPTs

I also found the Transcendar website. They show a sales email address. So I guess they could be bought direct.
