Output transformer for ZKIT (no Edcor)
02/19/25 at 08:40:22
 
Heya everyone, I've been running my "ZKIT" build with Edcor GXSE 10-8-8k output transformers and am thinking about upgrading these.

Here are two options I'm considering:
1) 14k primary – 8 or 4 Ohm secondary
2) 10k primary - 8 Ohm secondary

With option 1) I'm a little concerned that 14kOhm primary will yield too little power (having no power issues at all with the 8kOhm Edcor right now)

With option 2) I'm a little concerned that the bass output won't be as good when wired for 10k primary.

Any opinions by people who know more about this than I do?

Here are the charts for 1) and 2):

Option 1



Option 2

I'm not the best to judge on the output capacity on the eg. 14k primary, just chipping in that I ordered my "made-to-order" output transformers from Hammond.

Sounds great – to which specs did you have Hammond make your custom transformers?
