The Bent Audio unit has 6 pairs of input and 1 output pair. When I rebuilt it I replaced the source switches with new Elna switches and rewired everything with 25 gauge OCC copper in teflon tubing. It was very smooth, but like many transformer units the loss of detail kept me from being happy. I looked into buying an autoformer which led to finding that I could rewire the transformer as an autoformer. That solved the problem.
