The transformers used in Amp # 3 were not the "Dynaclone" brand sold by Triode Electronics but a "clone" of the A-470's that is put out by www.dynakitparts.com. In conversation with Kevin Devaney of www.dynakitparts.com their "DYANKITâ„¢ audio transformers are built to the same specifications of the original design and like the originals are interleaved/layer-wound and incorporate M-6 grain oriented laminations."
I really don't know a lot about output transformer design but can attest to the fact that (at least according to my ears) they sound indistinguishable from the old cloth lead original A-470's.Bob
