Transformer Choices, Please Help

[Andrew Heck]

Howdy, I'm getting ready to build the Salas Simple Folded Phono Amp, and I'm needing help choosing a good toroidal transformer. It needs to output two 18v secondaries at 30VAC for use in the US. I don't know why I'm having a hard time finding one, but I am. Any tips on best sources or how to correctly search the interwebs would be appreciated as well. Thanks very much to whoever takes a minute to read this for your time.

So, is the 30VA a minimum?

50VA a tad bit larger which is absolutely no problem for your app.
