Drive yourself mad by reading another of my pages,

Hi again, Patrick.
I read some of your works of your site.
They are very interesting and comprehensive.
May I suggest that you update your knowledge with the novel single ended output transformers? I recommend the corresponding article of Pierre Touzelet in the May 2013 issue of AudioXpress.
Pierre has demonstrated with his authoritative mathematical style that the SC-OPT developed for single ended amplifiers works exactly, under certain conditions, as the conventional, gapped OPT.
This kind of transformer is suitable for any quiescent dc value, opening the way to powerful S.E. valve amplifiers .... etc.
You seem to be very interested in the construction of audio transformers and this is an opportunity to reconsider the idea that "nothing can be invented in this field". Please do not use the "ipse dixit" attitude.
I'm open for further information, if requested.
Cheers,
Ari (Audiochef).
