Description: I think I don't have to be praising TRIAD transformers here, right? TRIAD is TRIAD, simply one of the greatest. I am an extensive audio transformers collector, and from my experience, this pair is made in USA in the 70s. From date code, probably 1973. These are new in box, never used, never soldered! It's really hard to come by something like this. Get this while you can, cause they don't make 'em like this anymore. Vintage transformers build quality and performance have been rediscovered in the last decades, and prices skyrocket each year. Transformers checked and working great! I have four of these (like you see in the last picture) so I'm selling only one pair here, and keeping the other pair for my own use. I have a big collection and I am selling duplicate ones, so I can keep at least a pair for me. The ones I'm selling here are better matched than the ones I am keeping. You can use these for microphone to grid or FET input, and also some BJT circuits thay works with high impedance like API or QUAD-8, passive instrument DI boxes or MC Step-up. These transformers works on a wide range of impedances, so you can use it for many different cartridges, or to get different sound out of tge same cartridge. I recommend you use a toggle swith to access both impedances on the primary (400 and 100 ohms) and also a log pot or rotary switch to terminate de secondary, so you can load it with many different resistances. Buy this and use it to make your preferred moving coil cartridges come alive. This transformer was born to shine with the best cartridges from Ortofon, Shure, Denon, Accuphase, Goldring, Nagoka, Audio Technica, ADC, Roksan, Rega, Koetsu, Grado, Clearaudio, Sumiko, Benz Micro, My Sonic Lab, Hana, ZYX, Miyajima, Vertere Acoustics, Ana Mighty Sound, Charisma Audio, Allnic Audio, Soundsmith, Lyra, Acoustical Systems, MoFi, Shelter, etc. I know my stuff, and have tested transformers from all of the very best manufacturers, vintage and new production, likeJorgen Shou JS, Western Electric, Langevin, Marinair, Parmeko, Partridge, UTC, Tamura, Peerless, Triad, Thordarson, Chicago, Beyerdynamic, Altec, Telefunken, Malotki, Siemens, Seinnheiser, Lundahl, Raphaelite, Haufe, Pikatron, Sowter, etc. You can also use vintage transformers to build your own units like preamplifiers or amplifiers, or just a transformer box to run your signal through and get the benefits, if you are into HiFi DIY. Otherwise, if you are a musician, producer or studio owner, you can use vontage transformers to build Pultecs, VariMu compressors, mic preamps and many more, with lots of character, to open up the variety of your sound palette. This pair of transformers are really rare! Unfortunately, due to COVID-19 limitations (yes, still), I can't ship to Australia. Don't ask me why. More good audio parts in my other items. Make sure you check it!
