Hello, Milsman2, After several weeks I was reviewing the various threads regarting your K-12G amp postings and wanted to ask a question...
You indicated that you plan to go with a dual K-501 build and cite the "transfo issue" as a reason for this build rather than the K-12G. What is, exactly, the issue with the transformers on the K-12G? Although some folks have modified their K-12 builds to use other transformers, most have said this change provided only minimal benefit, especially compared to the capacitor upgrades. I use my K-12G on a daily basis and it gives me great pleasure. Others who have heard it are impressed...most of them have younger ears and regularly "challenge" the amp with music that I don't have (or intend to have).
I guess I'm perplexed by your decision in light of the responses to your questions...much more information is available for building and modding the K-12 than the K-501 or K-502.
Can you clarify things for me? If not, that's fine. I'm just curious.
