Panasonic rx-fm40 transformer swap

[docs]

where do I begin? Something that would fit, but what else am I looking for? Number of pins, what they are etc
I think it transforms to 9v.
Help appreciated.

You could use a universal trany if you bypass the voltage selector and dc interlock.

This is a 9-10V with build-in fuse type transformer

Make sure your replacement transformer output is about 9-10V 1.5-2A,

this particular unit doesn't have a voltage selector.

Spot on, will search for your recommendation, thank you.
How does this look? Not sure about it's size but something like this?

How much room do you have. I stumbled across this cheap radio with a low profile single tap transformer. 35mm

Will take a look and report back soon, thanks hopey.

Looks like roughly 40mm deep and 70mm wide.
Trying the one linked above on ebay but if no joy with that i'll be interested in this for sure.

Hard to find low profile. Also the right output current I would say the one I pictured is only 1a 9v. Yours may need 1.5 or 2a? Who plays it at full volume anyway haha.

This is the same as mine. 30x40x65

Thanks for the help.
I bought the transformer linked in post #5 and it works great so far.
Only thing I noticed is that it is a 1A but all the other things matched, 240v AC to two 9v DC outputs.
Perfect!!
