Can't read schematic component values.

Weird article

[edit]

While I'm in no position to question the impact of the "wolfbox" for studio work, it may well have been revolutionary, but the design is an audio transformer designed for this very purpose, put in a box. And it's not a "triad transformer", the ones mentioned in the article are transformers manufactured by Triad Transformers in Huntington, Indiana (sometimes known as Triad-Utrad).

Here's one of their catalogs, you'll find these components under "Audio Transformers, J Series" listed as "Line or Mike to Grid".

The company has been around since WWII, and you'll find similar components (but with different article numbers) in their earliest catalogs as well.

(Maybe studio engineers are different, but when I hear "this person invented X" I'd expect a bit more than "this person took a standard component that was designed to do X by someone else, and put it in a box" :-)  Preceding unsigned comment added by 2A02:120B:2C01:EA70:B83D:7962:3495:6815 (talk) 11:57, 27 March 2017 (UTC)Reply
