I've two question about the Blue Angel
1) Wich is the AC voltage of the PT before rectify ?
2) Wich is the primary impedance of the OT ?
Thanks

Re: Two questions about Mesa Boogie Blue Angel
Not to be rude but in 3 minutes of google searching I found your answers.
have you tried the mesa boogie forum?

Answers:
275 Volts AC

Several aftermarket companies offer drop in replacement OT iron.

Re: Two questions about Mesa Boogie Blue Angel
Thanks for the answer Selloutrr
About the voltage question I put:
I remembered the voltage was near 275v but didn't remember were I've read, so I put the question to verify if what I remembered was correct
Thanks for the link, now I remember I've read the value on the schematic
be patient I'm not so young and my memory (also if I'm not so old) begin to have little failures
about the OT primary impedance I asked because I want to build an amp using the PA schematic of the Blue Angel (PI + final tubes) and a different preamplifier
As I've some OT I need to know if one can fit there .....

Re: Two questions about Mesa Boogie Blue Angel
Many Thanks5K impedance
is that an estimated value or you know for sure ?
----
I think I've a couple of OT which primary is 2.5Kohm and have many secondaries (from old RCF PA amp with el503 tubes)
I think I can find the right secondary to connect an 8ohm speaker to obtain a reflected primary impedance of 5kohm

Re: Two questions about Mesa Boogie Blue Angel
if you go to the forum and search...
5k is the impedance for the blue angel output transformer.
5k is also the same impedance used for the aftermarket replacement iron.
I could open mine up and send you pictures of the volt meter but I'll charge for the bench time.
Anything from 4K - 6K will get you close enough.
Since you aren't using the preamp it's not going to effect the over all tone of the amp.
