Heh, either is the domain of the tube streo collector guys, and being one of them, I will be extremely huffy if anyone butchers any vintage gear for a project like this. There is absolutely *no* need to do that, anyway. And trust me on this - for what you would pay, you'd rather put it on the shelf and look at it :)) If you must butcher, butcher some junk old power supply equipment, they are often resplendent in their meterage. -.bill.layer.- -.those who are talking don't know, and those who know aren't talking.- -.frogtown.- -.minnesota.- -.u.s.a.-
