I have built several successful tube studio projects. I am building a Federal Am 864 clone. I have an old Merit 500 TO 10K CT line input transformer and a Merit 10K CT to 500 15 watt output transformer.I had to rob a nice single ended creation (5879 to triode connected 6L6) for this output tranny. I also have the option of and old Stancor PP output tranny from an ancient PA amp. (i guess it is 5-6k ct to 500 ohm tap (20 watt ???). i would like to use the Stancor for the AM864 because the Merit sounded so good on the unit i pulled it from and the tranny i replaced it with does NOT have the 'magic'...ALSO THE 864 IS A NEW BUILD SO I DON'T WANT TO TRASH THE NEW CHASSIS ON AN 'experiment'
CAN I USE THE STANCOR FOR THE PP 6SN7 OUTPUT ??? THX ( any info will be appreciated)
