Igor, me and EEMO1 are going to pay together since we live nearby. The payment should be coming next week - sorry for the delay. EEMO1 is most likely the one paying for both orders..

 

[EEMO1]

hey,

that's true. i'll be paying for both mine and jaakkos. Im afraid I have to switch from a kit to a set of pcb's...

 

[Igor]

Hi Jim, yes, kit includes switches.

Are there still stereo kits and psu's available?

There should be one or two previously "reserved for a week" (actually month) kits.
Please PM.

Can we talk a bit about these trannys?

Trunny's are:
-line (31267 or substitute) qty1
-mic (10468 or substitute) qty1
-gaped output trunny (1066 or sub') qty1.

Brands, sources, costs, sounds?   Especially for those of us in the good ole US of A...

Brad,

All those numbers above are the original Neve tranos made by Marinair/St Ives.

The closest thing these days are the Carnhills and your best bet to get em, unless you arrange a Group Buy (do able, but NOT fun!), is through Colin (Slenderchap). Costs are not cheap (though Colin's prices rock!). I think you are looking at +-100 British Pounds for a set ex shipping/duties.

You can find them on Colin's site here: http://www.audiomaintenance.com/acatalog/Transformers_and_Inductors.html

The model numbers there would be:

-line VTB9046
-mic VTB9045
-gaped output VTB9049 (though there are other options with fly leads, lower profile frames etc).

RE sound, they are prob as close as you are going to get to the originals, thick, velvet like tones, beefy lows, somewhat muddy mids and a beautiful airy top end (at least my personal experience, YMMV).

I hope that helps, but really think these questions should be asked in the help thread, which you can find here: http://www.groupdiy.com/index.php?topic=32605.0 to keep things clean, I'll post my response there as well.

Cheers

Matt

thanks for this post. it is very helpful. so how much did you spend for transformers for each stereo one?
