    My VTA Audio Transformers

    Look at this everyone... As with everything I do I check my components especially my audio and power transformers.

    I am absolutely stunned and  shocked how tight the tolerances are on my two audio transformers for my VTA ST 120 amp.
    The tolerances are almost identical to one another and that is very rare indeed. Love It !  My VTA Audio Transformers  1f600

    Take a look at my findings below.
