Trying Ross Hogarth’s Transformer Soldering Project From “Recording Unhinged”

In this video, we try out a project mentioned by Ross Hogarth in Sylvia Massy’s book, “Recording Unhinged.” It involves soldering XLR cables to some type of passive transformer (similar to the type of transformer in something like an LA-2A). I used two matched RCA passive bridging transformers for this project. Hope you like it!
