That middle transformer is the power tranny. And all the incoming AC and current is going through it! So naturally it is going to heat up the longer your amp is in use! And if your speaker load tends to be 4 ohms or less, then that power tranny will get even hotter! The best solution is to replace it with a bigger transformer rated for more current. But a bigger transformer won't fit in that amp's chassis!
Audio Research VS110 Middle transformer gets very hot the 2 sides not so is this normal
After about 1 hour of play the middle transformers gets very hot you can touch it but bearley
the 2 side transformers nearly warm .
my question are
is this normal or an issue in the making?
Is it safe to keep it on for 4 hours or not ?
Thanks for your advice
