RE: Help: Hammond 272DX 125 Tap not working, but 115 is working.

I just checked, all three wires DO have continuity. Any other thoughts?

2 alternatives in case the 125V tap is not working:

1. put in a #47 light bulb after the fuse to reduce voltage by 6V.

2. get a new transformer. In your opinion, Mr. Triode_Kingdom, is the power transformer a critical component that should be updgraded from a Hammond product? Or is Hammond as good as it gets? I have Hashimoto OPTs and wondering if a Hashimoto PT, or other brand, would have sonic improvements.
