SU PER FlO ELITY * OUTPUT TRANSFORM ERS

The new I lne of' DYNACO output Iron~f.c:lrfnen lneorpcrotes I he fint basic advance in output mmsformer design since the tnfroducucn of interleaved windings. All DYNACQ models +eeture pere-eeupled winding'!;, a design by DO\lid Hofler on which pctents (Ire pending. n,i~ novel cure neemenl provides an cccurctely he lanced coil with Ught coupling between the IIQriQI,..I:50 sections end o choice of perometere which Furnish superior quclity at moderate cost. The low distortion which results from the pnre-eeupled design give!. 9reol~r definition of musicel derctl=cnotcqces to the way in which complex coupling 01 lens elements can provide greoter resolution of photographic detail.

This goal wos eehieved by buildina into the tronslcrmers a large mer- 9ill of performanc-e cnpcbditles, over 1"01 normally expected in an ou~pui trcnsformer. One result of 'this policy 15 that Ihe d-e~ign is not crifico ~ on tube bnlnnce, and cireclt ... Lon be slmpliflecl end rncintenonce minimlaed by omi5'Soion QI' components whi(" Clre used :soolely lor the purpose of belcncinq currents in the- output transformer

Recogn~ti-on of the impertent fact Ihat output tronsjormer:i ere intended TO operate wtth loudspecke- load~ rather then re5~'Sotive leeds alone- led to desiqn fecteres whleh preserve l he quality of performance even w"en the load impedance §hifh such ns noppem. 01 the ends of the audio spectrum with loodspecker leeds. The subsrenne T reserve of power handling ecpebtllty whijch i~ built inlo every DYNACO Super-Fidelity output trorrsformer permits full und'.doded power trcnsmlsslon 01 frequency extremes. Most better grade sronsformers can deliver a recsonc ble 0 mount of power In the middle of the nudlo bend. Unfortvnctelv however, in most units the. distortion at' high levels increcse shorplv at the ends of the bond. Thls is nol true for' DYNACO treosfcrmere since the peru-coupled arrangement reduces middle o nd high frequency dls+crricn. while 0 mcssive core of thin govge groin 'Oriented steel provides distortkmless trcnsrnission of high level. low Ireq u enl;:y 5igno I component s.

Modern high fidelity cmplifier clrcults lncorporcte ~ub. stc nncl proporliom of neqe+ive feedbeek, primoritylo reduce distortion to extremely low levels. H ow-ever, there 15 a penally which is inl;wred i,n the use of large cmcunts o! teedbeek-cp-cblems of instc 6ilily are introduced, and a lorqe pert of i hese p;oble!TI5 ore due to the delrimentol phose eboreetertsties 101 thoiOc oUlput trc nsformer used.
