I'm looking for a couple of nine pin "octal" sockets for some input transformers I have. They look like a regular octal socket with a key in the center, but they have nine evenly spaced pins instead of eight.


** This look like it ?

There is no key way & the pins a smaller dia than for octals.

Nope, that's not it. These have a key exactly like a regular octal tube (6L6, 6SN7, etc.). The transformers I have are for microphone inputs to a PA amplifier.

As I need only a small amount of power I was wondering if someone has already tested the following setup: A lab sine generator set to 50/60Hz, a low cost audio amplifier (units up to 500W are available for 50$ or so on ebay, and should be happy with a 50Hz signal), and a 48V/220V transformer driven on its secondary side. ...
