Siemens / Haufe input transformers
as MC transformers |
|
|
All Siemens / Haufe transformers are mu metal shielded. All (except
for the older versions with folded mu metal housing - see below)
have the yellow or orange tape where their type number is indicated.

|
Siemens Haufe Type T38 |
|
|
|
|
|
Rare - bigger size - input transformer. Great sound.
Same amplification as T-41, but lower input impedance which makes it
very versatile also for lower Z cartridges. |

|
Siemens Haufe Type T41 |
|
|
|
|
|
Quite common transformer found in Siemens preamps with 200 Ohms
balanced inputs for microphones. Looks the same as the T42 below. |
|
|
200 Ohms input impedance. Very versatile. Works with all MC
cartridges I have tested. Good amplification of 22dB. Great frequency response.
Perfect for Denon DL 103. |
|
|
Great sound. I
got a letter from a Korean audiophile who praises its dynamics also
compared to the Lundahl and Tamura transformers. I love it, too.

Siemens Haufe Type T42 |
|
|
|
|
|
These
transformers were used in the Sf. V 6.7 (green) EL84 PP amp and in
other amps as input transformers for photographic movie sound
projectors. |
|
|
Very low DC input (primary) impedance (3 Ohms). This way they only
work fine with cartridges having low output impedance. High
amplification of 26dB. |
|
|
Great sound -
very dynamic. Very good with the Ortofon SPU and other ultra low
impedance MCs. |
|
|
|
|
|
Siemens Haufe Type T108 |
|
|
|
|
|
Very rare input transformers. I have found this pair on a power amp
with 4 EL34 per channel. |
|
|
Impressing low frequency response and slightly louder highs. 20dB
amplification.
|
|
|
Works great
combined with horn speakers which lack some highest highs. Cool.
Great. Rare!

|
Siemens Haufe Type T4365 |
|
|
|
|
|
Very rare input transformers. Perfect frequency response |
|
|
Impressing low frequency response and 23dB
amplification.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Siemens Haufe Type T110 |
|
|
|
|
|
Perfect match for EMT Tondose TSD 15, XSD 15, TMD 25 (all 24 Ohms)
and OFS 25. |

Siemens Haufe Type T172 |
|
|
|
|
|
Very interesting transformer. Hard to find. Slightly larger than the
T41 or T42 types. |
|
|
Great frequency response and higher amplification than T41. |
|
|
Be aware! There
are also 1:1 input transformers with T172 type number. |
|
|
|
|
|
Siemens Type Bv. 17b/39 |
|
|
|
|
|
Ultra rare 1950s input transformers from the Austrian Klangfilm
section ("Wiener Schwachstrom Werke"). |
|
|
This type of transformer shielding was only used until the very
early 60s (the KL V502 was one of the last amps having such
transformers). |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Siemens
714030
10/769 |
|
|
|
|
|
Input transformers from the KLV-502. In this amp the input
transformers is not really needed, but should stay inside!
Very good
quality and having a good frequency response.
