In my quest to build both an LA2A and an 1176 on the cheap, I've got most everything acquired, minus transformers. I would like to use some of the stuff that I have on hand, if at all possible, so I wanted to run this by everyone for some clarification.
LUNDAHL LL5402 Output 1176 - 2 + 2 : 1 + 1
...is what I have specified as the OT. On the datasheet from Lundahls website, no impedances are given. I have a nos Thordarson TR195 on the shelf, and I'm wondering if it wouldn't be an acceptable substitution. It has 100ohm primary with 100ohmCT secondary.
Any thoughts?
I understand the concept of turns ratio. That's pretty straitforward. I'm still trying to grasp the difference between a 100:100 vs. a 15k:15k transformer though. As I understand it, impedance is the measure of frequency dependant resistance. I.e., resistance at 60hz is different than 20khz. Right? So is it just that the different impedance ratios will have different frequency responses?
Thanks in advance.
