monkeyxx said:Regarding input transformers, I'm mainly wanting to do half with those for sonic variation, more than technical advantage. From first hand experience with and without them, and from reviews from other users, I am interested in the coloration an input transformer will provide as a variation from the transformerless channels. I am considering a Jensen just because I've never used those. I have had great luck with Cinemag, also. What modifications would I need to make to the THAT or SCA T15 schematic to add an input transformer? If anyone's feeling especially charitable and has a graphics editing program, the T15 schematic is the one I'd like to most closely follow. I'm guessing you could get rid of the inductors at the input with the addition of a transformer?
monkeyxx said:well that would blow the door off my price per channel (the main reason for this project), but I am very interested in your power supply!

To echo JR, to add an input transformer is redundant before a 1512. I understand that FiveFish does this, I'd be interested in seeing how/why.
But to return to my previous suggestion, why not try an output transformer is you are looking for some of that sound? This has the added benefit of serving a purpose in the circuit that is not addressed by the 1512.
