Re: What type of Transformers for the Ringmod?

2006-01-10 by ken johnston

I used two 12 VCT @ 60 ma. transformers from Small Bear Electronics,
(but I think he gets them from Mouser). As for diodes, I found some old
germanium OA47's on ebay. Followed Stone's schematic and it's a very,
very nice sounding thing. Maybe it was luck, but this combination of
transformers and diodes worked for me.
