I called them once, they were not doing direct sales. Master Electronics has some in stock they are not cheap.
www.OnlineComponents.com is stocking them. Unfortunately, they are expensive to manufacture. We're building them in our California facility (USA) using the original paper-layered winding method, nickel lamination and deep-drawn mu-metal shield cans. We've upgraded the lead-wires to higher temp Teflon insulation vs. the original PVC making them easier to solder. In any case, the A-11J was $19.20 each in 1960, adjusted for inflation that would be $199.65 in 2023, so the price has actually decreased: www.onlinecomponents.com/en/triad-magnetics/a11j-12695159.html

This is badass. I love that a huge company like Triad is doing a sort of passion project. Kind of like Pilot making fountain pens.
 
Just saw that Mouser stocks some of the "A" series models now with datasheets hosted. Not cheap but also not significantly more $$ than recent used selling prices on eBay and Reverb... and they're brand new.

Respect that they're around! A friend of mine is planning to try some out in the future; will report back.

edit: Digikey has some too quite a bit cheaper than Mouser for some models (A-9J 50/250/600:85k is $129 from Digikey which is way the hell cheaper than the only used one on eBay right now for $240 lol)

Has the HS series made it into production? I see them listed on the website, but I'm not having any luck finding them for sale anywhere. Direct order only, perhaps?
I tried emailing them recently (a few days ago?) regarding the HS-52… To see if they’re available to order yet, or otherwise, if they had any idea when it’ll be ready, but no reply.
