Exactly! And that might be a problem!!

I have a 700 (basically half an 800) and I used an 800 for many years. They certainly have a unique sound...

I may have to order a custom transformer - expensive - or use 2 different transformers - bulky - or risk feeding a higher voltage to the -10V section - may overheat the transistors. So, it will be on an experimental basis!
