If your search isn't successful, Edcor could probably wind you up one for reasonable ;)

Hi Geek -- Do you know if they have the original manufacturing data for that transformer? That is, have they actually had one to tear down and rebuild before?

Talk to Douglas, as I think he knows a winder who could maybe reverse engineer it. I think he got one got it on the diyaudio swap form. He has a pair now mentioned here:

rmyauck -- Thanks for your response. I did contact Douglas last night. He responded this morning saying that since he found a second unit, the priority to have one reverse engineered for him has fallen way down on his to do list. Can hardly blame him.

I have sent a quick note off to Heyboer to see if they have not already reverse engineered this transformer for someone else, just in case -- but I think the chances of that are pretty low.

So, I will keep trying. I really appreciate all the responses so far. If any of ya'all (a little southern lingo there for ya) ever hear or know of one becoming available, I hope you'll keep me in mind!

Thanks again.
