What is the advantage of a Jensen Transformer over a custom wound Radial transformer?
In our view, Jensen is the world’s premier transformer manufacturer. They are hand stacked, precision would on digitally controlled Swiss-made winders, and provide the very best sonic performance. The Radial transformers are for a lack of better word a reasonably good copy of a Jensen. Both have mu-metal outer shells and both are extremely linear: The Jensen extends from 10Hz to 40kHz while the Radial goes from 20Hz to 18.5kHz. The Jensen obviously costs more and is reccomended for high-resolution recording.
