New improvement found using a laminated trafo of about 60va. An old piece salvaged many many years ago from a amp found in the bin which, oddily enough, has 3 windings : 15-0-15, 12-0 and (the not usable)17-0. I have powered the input Kit (12-0) and the B4. The sound is better (3d) although I have to allow in less signal to get same sound level.o.c.
As I now have to order an R-core.my question is whether there's consensus on whether to use 12-0-15 or 15-0-15. Laminated tx probably sound better by itself in this pre whether 12 or 15-0-15. even an old piece like this.
Photo to follow, whenever my Photobucket lets me upload it.
P.D. By the way Bennyboyph asked what source I was using: 1.- Wadia transport 3200 and Audionote DacII (output txless),2.- Yamaha tuner -my bodge-, and even tried my 3.-Linn Walhalla, Naim-Avondale Phonopre with SuperTeddyRgs
