Harman Kardon Citation Twelve Deluxe Transformers

[FireGuruMN]

I have a Citation Twelve Deluxe in very good condition except someone has apparently stripped it of its transformers for scrap value. The were not removed as though they were being salvaged for parts. The wires were just cut off at the transformer and the transformers removed. Very sad.

Does anyone know the specifications of the transformers and/or where I can get replacements? I am not overly concerned about having original equipment although it would be nice.

It is also missing the pilot light but that should be less of a problem to replace.

Then all I need is an Eleven Deluxe. . .

I'm no transformer expert however looking at the hfe service manual suggests 2, 350VA, 60Vac, center tap transformers, ie, 30-0-30Vac.
I wouldn't dump it, it's doable but will be expensive. Ideally someone with a unit will chime in and measure voltages at the filter caps. Manual
has +/-41.5Vdc

Go over to DIYaudio, Pass Labs, Nelson Pass knows those amps inside and out. He might have an answer or suggestion.

I'm just finishing my Cit 12 rebuild, just waiting for a new set of thermal line circuit breakers, should be here Sat!!!

Here's a couple pics of the transformers in my 12, which should be the same as the 12 deluxe. Using those numbers should help find two more, you may wind up buying a non-working 12, and robbing the parts you need!!
Good Luck!

Ooops! 2, 700VA, 60Vac, center tap transformers, ie, 30-0-30Vac., edited above

#$@%#! Once and for all, Two transformes each 350VA (220Vx1.5A or 117Vx3A), 60Vac, center 30-0-30Vac,
Total consumption 700VA, somewhere about 600Watts stamped on back?

Gotta get a new calculator, edited above.
