5K OPT in place of 3K ?
wrote:
Hello,
I have an opportunity to have SE OPT 5K / 0,4,8 ohms. Big good ones
second hand, cheap price.
But i want to build 300B SE, usually it is more 3K OPT.
Is there a way to use them for a 300b amp. ?
Dear Luc,
Primary impedance is secondary impedance x turns squared.
Just connect a 4 ohm speaker to the 8 ohm tap.
Primary impedance will then be 2.5k.
Speakers are not constant impedance loads anyway. A good
transformer will be fine like this.
best
Andy
