WTB: Pair of input transformers- Rola/Trimax

[Alistair]

I'm in the middle of refurbishing a pair of Rola MKIII units and both input transformers have been pinched somewhere along the line.

I'm looking to order in a pair of new Jensens or equivalent, but I figured if anyone has a pair of original Rola or Trimax input transformers sitting around in the shed, it will be someone on this board.

Those wiser than me have suggested 1:4 or 1:5 transformers, but I'm open to information if anyone knows what original issue in these units was.

Thanks guys.

Probably a Trimax MS-1114. It was in the Mk II and the Mk III amp is much the same, some minor differences.
30 ohm primary, 30K secondary.

Thanks Alastair, amazing info!

I've managed to find a picture of the back of a 77MkIII on the web, does this look like a MS-1114? The small can transformer in the bottom left corner?
I've checked out the schematic for the 77 MkII and it shows a transformer with bridges, where as the 77MkIII schem doesn't. Unsure if this is just a layout choice for the drawing, but it might suggest a different transformer.

can't see the part # on that photo. Unfortunately there a bunch of Trimax mic input transformers that are all built in the same can, so superficially look the same. I have here:
MS2458
MS2153
TA2263
173826/3
and unlabelled

...not very helpful I know

Thanks Rob- I've found a list of Trimax transformers but unfortunately none of the transformers you guys have mentioned are on there, and their doesn't seem to be any obvious logic in their designation.

I'll keep hunting.

I have a collection of Trimax transformers and so does Dave McCluney. If you can wait 4 months I can probably dig up something suitable...
