Hi Mike,

If it is the primary of the transformer that opened (usually is) you can still use it to get you buy. Just put a resistor in the plate of the audio driver tube, in place of the transformer primary. I think around 10k 2 watt will work ok. Then couple the plate of the driver to the grid of one of the 1625s with a capacitor. Leave the secondary of the driver transformer hooked to both grids and bias as it was. It will work as an auto transformer to couple audio into both tubes. Works fine! Although gain will be somewhat less than with the transformer.

Be sure to check to see what shorted to take out the transformer. Maybe the tube.

Hello,

I just lost the audio driver xfmr in my DX-100. I turned it on to warm up
and a few minutes later the house filled with the familiar smell. Anyone
have a parts unit or advise as where I might find a replacement?

Thanks
