    OT. OTs With Nipper Embossed in the End Covers

    I picked up a pair of NOS p-p output transformers with "Nipper" metal-stamped on the winding covers. Sold as HMV but could be RCA or JVC. Very neat looking assembly without the use of through-lamination bolts. About 10W or so. Wax encapsulated which probably indicates paper between windings and may indicate HiFi model.
    Any thoughts on whether Hifi or not?
    Opinion is only as valid as its verifiable supporting evidence.

    My thought is this: do you have an oscilloscope(dual trace) and AF signal generator?

    Comparing input vs output waveforms across the audible spectrum can give some immediate indication.

    Unfortunately, I do not have a dual trace CRO.
