In reply to icorn. No this is wrong icorn. It goes: signal>(true bypass 4pdt switch)>primary>secondary> (true bypass 4pdt switch)> output. The unit u see on the site is prolly stereo.

You are inversely wiring transformers and wiring them in series in your signal path in order to “color” the tone based on each xfmrs tonal characteristics?

Is this correct:

Signal > primary 1 > secondary 1> secondary 2 > primary 2 > output

Yes, that’s where they went. If you had vintage audio for sale between 1998 and 2004, almost all of it went to Korea. As one example, I had for sale a dozen LS-30’s new in the box, and Koreans bought them all. While always the highest bidders, consider also that they pay 100% duty on top of that.

This is quite common among audiophiles in Korea. They like to run the output of CD players through various transformers. They put them on boxes with connectors.
