Little by little, I am tweaking the 2A3 amp with schematic changes and part upgrades. I am considering 3 different upgrades and would like to know which of these 3 would give me audible impact. 1. I am considering new filament transformers for my 2a3 amp (schematic below). The amp currently uses Hammond 166m2 filament supplies. I am considering other brands of filament supplies. 2. Inserting a new choke between the filament supply and 2A3 3. New power supply to replace the Hammond 272 DX. Which of these would you pursue first and what parts brand do you like? Thanks! Pat |
