[AMRadio] Re: Supply for PP 304TLs ??

[Brian Carling]

Here you go DOn.

This outfit sells transformers for building a 304TL amplifier.

You can even buy the complete amplifier kit for $85,000

Hehe - yes guys, that IS $85,000

Of course, it's a stereo audiophool amplifier.

Looks like you could get a set of transformers for a mere $14,000 or so.
