[Elecraft] KPA500 vs THP HL-550FX

[Dyarnes]

Hi All,

A nice comparison of the KPA500 and the THP amp.  Pros and cons for either 
I'm sure.  However, the question of weight makes me curious.  As a KPA500 
owner I know that there isn't much inside the KPA500 that adds a lot of 
weight other than that nice, husky transformer.  Erroneously, perhaps, I've 
always thought that bigger was better when it came to transformers--more or 
less.  So, does this suggest the transformer in the THP might be less 
substantial?  Not necessarily inadequate, but less substantial??  Just 
curious.
