Hi Bud,
Thanks for the pointers; I already have a pair of vertically sectioned cores wound from a while back, on white nylon (ugh?!) . Not remotely optimal, but if the concept works I will definitely have to try something along your lines. The tip regarding the polybutadene is just what I was wondering about, thanks.

I also wonder if a sectioned toroid might be better - just curling the vertical core into a donut, slinky spring style. Anyway, all conjecture til I build the blasted thing.

Romy beat me to posting 6C33 data; from the "Super Melquiades" thread, looks like just one section as far as the treble amp goes.

Best,
Chris

PS Just saw you mention the Horenstein Mahler 3rd - coincidentally, a friend lent me the very same (though on CD) a few weeks ago - loved it.
