So I subscribed to AudioXpress magazine because a couple forum members have written articles for it.... figured what the hell I'll check it out. In the magazine their are a few ads for custom transformers.... I thought... Cool see whats up.
I'm looking to have some power transformers to be made for another federal limiter, all I need in a 175-0-175 @ 60mA. No filaments (already have the filament transformer).
I looked through the Magazine and found an ad "AUDIO TRANSFORMERS - america's premier winder" based in WI. no catalog, email for quote.. the email name is AUTRAN.
Here is my interaction:

Are you using a push-pull silicon diode system or a FWB going into a cap?

Hello there,
175-0-175 @60mA
6AX5 rectifier to filter cap.
AUTRAN
One pair with end covers will cost you $700.00. Please remember that this is custom work which includes design and setup time. What about filament voltage for the rectifier tube?
Payment is by a bank cashier's check or a US Postal MO. Turnaround time right now is about three weeks.
