I found a couple of Marshall reverb driver transformers in my drawer today. and knowing the are suposed to drive a 250ohm reverb from a 12A?7, I figured they could be great for a tubepre output, or driving my 250 ohm Beyer headphones.
sending a signal trough them reveals a turnratio of 5:1...or 15000:600..I could hang this on a 12au7 and have an output ;D
..but what's pusseling me is the DCR..if this is made to drive 250 ohm, shouldnt the DCR be something like 25ohm or less?..what I get with my meter is 300ohm DCR on the secondary...is this just a poor transformer, or is it intentionaly made this way not to push bass into the reberbtank or something. ..or what does it mean?...could they be ok for audiowork anyway?
they look like this by the way..
any thoughts or ideas?..
thank's
