Hello,
wanting to use the CineMag S217D replica in a tube preamp, there is no data given for the shielding of the unit. Original S217D provided 50dB of shielding but maybe they have changed the housing?
Tertiary winding will be grounded for electrostatic shield. Can this replica be placed right next to an electron power tube or will the tube induce hum into the transformer?
There are another two, fully MIL case shielded, audio transformers included in the design. One has 95dB of shielding, the other is unknown.
Do all those transformers have to be put far away from electron tubes or isn't it critical in respect of hum inducing? First stage is MM phono input stage. Thank you.
