Is there any particular reason for needing a 12:1 transformer in the royer circuit? If it's based off a U47(I say based off, coz I know it's a different circuit, different tube etc) wouldn't a lower ratio be better suited?
Most of the tube mic circuits I've read about round here use a lower ratio.
I've put a lundahl 1538(5:1) in mine and it sounds great, which at the end of the day is the most important thing.
I guess I'm trying to understand mics a bit better, and I know I've got a lot of reading and experimenting to do, but if there's a specific reason for the 12:1, that'd be good to know (or be pointed in the right direction)
