There used to be a good chart in wiredbecker's post, about halfway down this thread:

Unfortunately, the images seem to be gone. Was anyone wise enough to keep a copy around? The charts had a method to calculate transformer capacity as a function of unit resistance, i.e. ohms per volt. Basically you determine the voltage off the HV secondary, and measure the DC resistance of said winding. Divide one value by the other, then look up the current rating from the chart. The function is a linear one, so if you have two known transfomers you might be able to fudge your own chart.
Edit: Found them... here you go:
"It's a different experience; the noise occlusion, crisp, clear sound, and defined powerful bass. Strong bass does not corrupt the higher frequencies, giving a very different overall feel of the sound, one that is, in my opinion, quite unique."
