Home Tube DIY Asylum

Do It Yourself (DIY) paradise for tube and SET project builders.

Yes sure, TWO SE OPT's can be kluged...

together into a PP transformer of sorts, but a rather sad one.
When one does this, the very virtue of having equal/ opposite
magnetic flux induced in a unified SINGLE core which counteracts
core magnetization and allows PP OPTs to have greater power
output and lower frequency extension for a given core size due
to less saturation.

IMHO, using two SE OPTs to build a pseudo PP opt is like combining
the weak points of both topologies into one less efficient more
expensive package.

Sure, I guess if one were on a desert island and had no other choices,
then one might be forced into such a design.
