Newcomb, huh?
I could use some plug-in mic transformers for my Newcomb mixer,

Dave, which model?
He showed me a gold colored one.

The mixer is a KX-something or other. I believe it's a five-input job, with sockets for five mic transformers. It's in storage right now, so I can't say for sure.
Hmmm, looks like the Ampex AX 300 is a 4 tracker.
Might make a cool little low tech studio recorder.

Alright CJ, I'll be there tomorrow morning. The flight comes in at 6:30 AM. Can you pick me up at the airport-oh, and can I crash at your pad for a few weeks?

CJ, do you have your hacksaw ready? :twisted:
Yeah. the Peerless is coming apart tonight.
I have been waiting a long time to get my hands on this one.
Pretty rare and expensive. I am glad one of the windings is open, otherwise I would not have wanted to hack it.
I hope it's got the discontinued 12L lams in it. If so, I am going to rewind the core into a S-217-D Pultec output.
It's got the same 3 can package as the 217.
Looks like that Ampex is not the greatest thing in the world according to the web. Problematic and not up to snuff with the earlier stuff. Maybe I will make it into an echo machine. It's got six heads, so maybe I can wire it for different delay times. Also has three speeds...

That might be the 'Ampex' which was really a re-badged japanese machine?

Could be.
The really old one almost looks like a prototype. I was gonna gut it for parts, but I better research it first.
Hmm. Wonder where the heck Kev is hiding?

You probably know it, but the K241D is Pultec MB1 input transformer.
Didn't know that!
So I guess your interested, Raf!
I better be careful with this one.
Not the flatest x-former I have seen in open circuit. Steady rise starting at 1 khz.
Thanks!

The K241d is highly sought after. Is it really shorted?
Open secondary.
