MPS New Projects

Updates 12/16/20-
1- New Standard Product Offerings for OT5PP, OT8SE and OT12PP+ in revised versions are now in stock from the new Mexican supplier.  Pricing will be improved significantly if you can use the standard versions

2- Created (4) new HiFi/Audio offerings based upon success we've had building low distortion versions of our current designs with more iron and more complex interleaved winding sections.  The idea here is low distortion and wider frequency response well beyond guitar amp requirements.  See OT10SE-HF, OT20PP-HF, OT19PP-DYN-US, OT22PP-DYN-US and OT43PP-DYN70 spec sheets.

Note- Our US cover and frame supplier (BAHRS) closed up shop at the end of September & sold their tooling to a new business.  We're between orders now on some sizes of covers (HC87).  That may impact what we stock for a couple of months.

We are seeing a lot of customers with time for projects currently.  If we can hit the requirement with one of our standard material sets we have a pretty good track record on custom builds. If you've got something weird or wonderful that you need ........  we do that ;-)

Recent custom jobs include:

OT22PP-DYN-USA - Dynaco35 OT scaled up a size using EI 1-1/8 Lams (8K: 4/8ohm)

Still ramping up the Standard Project Output Transformer Parts for Mexico across the year.  This gets you available EBay/MPS stock, great value and frees up our time for Custom project work & US built PT's.  

PT350M-TWD-USA Tweed Power Xfmr 700Vct(130mA) 6.3Vct(3A) and 5V(2A) heaters.

 

OT8SE STD- 5K/7K ohm 4,8,16 ohm 4-8VA (50mADC) Mexico built shielded Single Output Transformer     <<Coming late JUL 2020>>
Samples approved in June for a production run this Summer.
This is a small economical Single Ended project transformer using the EI-3/4 29M6 Laminations in a 3/4 in square stack.  Think EL84 and 6V6 on a budget with three outputs.  Last ran this version in Asia.

 

OT5PP STD- 22K5 ohm 4,8,16 ohm 1-5VA Mexico built shielded Push Pull Output Transformer     <<Coming AUG 2020>>
Samples approved in June for a production run this Summer.
This is a Low Power project transformer with full range sound using the EI-3/4 29M6 Laminations in a 3/4 in square stack.  Same design we've offered since 2010.  Looking to keep this in EBay Store stock regulary.

 

OT12PP+ STD- 10K/8K ohm 4,8,16 ohm 12 - 18VA Mexico built shielded Push Pull Output Transformer     <<Coming AUG 2020>>
Samples approved in June for a production run this Summer.
This is a "Tweed" or Vintage project transformer using the EI-3/4 29M6 Laminations in an oversized 1in thick stack.

 

OT19PP-DYN-USA- 8K:4,8 ohm USA built OT Dynaco35 HiFi amplifier Kits-  EI-1 size 22VA version

OT22PP-DYN-USA- 8K:4,8 ohm USA built OT Dynaco35 HiFi amplifier Kits-  EI-1-1/8 size 30VA version

OT43PP_DYN70 (USA)- 4K6:4,8 ohm USA built OT fuse in Dynaco 70 HiFi amplifier Kits

OT16PP (USA)- simple 6K6:8 ohm USA built OT for the economically minded Deluxe or 6V6 P-P combo builder

OT17PP (USA)- simple 8K:8 ohm USA built OT for the economically minded Tweed/Princeton/18W builder

PT240.1 (USA)- I've had a nice little 2-section PT Bobbin hanging around for a while & have built a couple of filament transformers with it.  This month I finally got around to building a small HiV PT with it for 12AU7-ish circuits running at 1W to 5W.  It is the same size as the OT20PP USA in VC87 bells & on the bench I dropped it into my 20VA resistive load and it held up a 325Vdc B+ thru my diode bridge (using "120" inputs) and 340Vdc B+ putting 120 actual onto the "115" inputs.  I center-tapped the heater .... just because Hammond doesn't and I can.  I'm not yet seeing why I can't offer this somewhere around the OT20PP USA price level.

PT190.1 (USA)- a small HiV PT with it for 12AU7-ish circuits running at 1W to 5W.  It is the same size as the OT20PP USA in VC87 bells & on the bench I dropped it into my 20VA resistive load and it held up a 260Vdc B+ thru my diode bridge (using "120" inputs) and 285Vdc B+ putting 120 actual onto the "115" inputs.  I center-tapped the heater 

2016 Amp Build Project

It seems like I find time around the holidays each year to build myself an Amp.  This year I built a Classix Audio NSV6B kit with custom OT20PP (5K1:8ohm) and PT290.2  updated Traynor Bassmate 20 6v6 circuit .  My first PCB based kit.  Nice circuit with Basic Traynor Bass input plus a high gain for guitar.  It works OK as a bass practice amp & rocks nicely as a guitar amp.  Got the nice lows with the custom OT I whipped up for this build.  It's good to be the Xfmr guy ;-)

Other Projects 

PT290.2i - smaller 220/240Vac mains int'l type Power Transformers just under 4Lbs shipping.  These will fit in the 4Lb USPS Int'l Flat Rate package and ship for a reasonable cost (~$26USD).  I can tweak the PT275.2i to operate anywhere from 190-0-190 (120MA)  to about 325-0-325 (80mA).  

OT3SE in the EI-62 material set. It's an over-sized 3/4" stack with a gap.
OT18.2PP 8000Ohm :4/8/16 EI100 x 1.4in stack w/5 Layer winding interleave. 4 Lbs of sonic goodness. What do you have inside your amp????
OT18.2PP PLUS- EI112 x 1.7in stack. 5 Lbs of heavy goodness. 8000Ohm: 4/8/16 Ohms and 35VA.
