So I’ve had an experience recently that surprised me a little. And I’m wondering if this is what other people are experiencing.
No, I’m not talking about some weird amplifier behavior or tubes unexpectedly exploding (although that would be something of note). I talking about our friends at Edcor.
In my post “The Next Amp” a while back I talked about a single ended KT88 triode strapped amplifier. After looking at some design variations I decided that I needed some GXSE15 output transformers to handle the higher currents and power levels. All I had on hand were GXSE10s so I placed an order with Edcor. I did this on the 5th of December. As I type this post, that’s exactly 13 day ago.
So this is what’s sitting on my desk this afternoon.
Both output transformers arrived on my front porch today. To say I was surprised (happily so) is an understatement. I know that some people have reported having to wait as long as six to eight weeks for an Edcor order to ship. However, the last several orders I made with them have shipped in, what I consider to be, record time.
So is this unique to my experience, or have other people also been the beneficiaries of extra fast service from Edcor? I’m truly curious.
As always, questions or comments are welcome.
