Soundlab is harder

Firstly the voltage is the highest of the lot.

Secondly, it is a one panel ELS.

Please remember why we have so much bass when the others struggle. The bass transformer has more turns than the High Frequency transformer. So the two transformers actually acts sort of like a RIAA section.

One transformer, one panel when driven only have highs and no bass.

If we go direct drive, we need some form of mixer, or crossover network.

The biggest problem is that a direct drive amp is almost illegal to sell. The only way to do it is a DIY Kit with very limited liability - maybe.

Unlike ordinary amps, we can touch the speaker cables and not get electrocuted. With direct drive, touching the speaker wires will kill.
