tvc vs avc


from a practical standpoint, what is the difference between a transformer vs autoformer based passive volume control? Bent Audio has moved to Slagle autoformers to replace the unavailable tx 103 S&B transformers, and apparently thinks they work at least as well.

Interested in knowing if some of you have had the chance to compare since the last post. I tried the Bent Tap-x before with the AVC and liked it better than an S&B passive I tried, but it wasn't a Bent NOH or TAP. Would appreciate additonal comments on the the TVC AVC differences. Hi Teajay - yup, still trying new stuff.
Has the passive pre hysteria gone away? Are we all back to our glowing tube preamps?
