I need a replacement power transformer for this unit. The numbers on the
transformer are 042-010078-000. Underneath this is ELY 0241. It also has
a sticker marked H.P. Two blue input wires, center tapped outputs, outer
two yellow, inner one white. Outputs measure 1.5 ohms to center, both
sides, and 3.0 ohms outer. Input side is open. Can anyone recommend a
source? Klipsch will not talk to me, as I'm not an authorized repair
center, just a home guy fixing his own stuff. It was given to me free,
and I'd like to fix it. It doesn't appear to be cooked, as the lacquer
is not burnt, and no burnt smell.

generally there is no need to get power transformers from the original
mfr, as theyre normally generic items. You'd need to know voltage and
power / VA specs to get a replacement.

Rewinding works but is a hell of a job, not something I'd ever consider
today. Once was quite enough.
