Hammond makes a transformer you are looking for. The transformer suggestion
below will work but it is not built for audio. (core is stacked for power
and not audio). The Hammond would be better. http://www.tubesandmore.com/
Look for P-T119DA It is good for 12 watts. 8 ohms to 600 ohms it also has
a 4 ohm tap.
