I have also ordered a bespoke transformer and choke in the UK.
What mods and tubes would you recommend?
Thanks

I added a review which I think you may have read. I have a thread on Lenco Heaven, look for Andrew.R and then find my EAR thread, you'll see lots of photo's over their. I went through lots of ECC83's, Telefunkens, Sovtek, GE JAN variants, but I ended up with x3 Mullard CV4004, expensive but very very worthwhile.
