Neat idea... but there is several things to consider... one of the things I
think of is when the inductors starts to interact with eachother - or yeat worse - with your power transformer!
There is of course ways to cure this... the selection of inductor for instance..

On the other hand.. simulateing the same cursuit with an gyrator of 2 OP-amps
migth be better...
