I always wondered how they wound toroids. Here is a link to a video of that process. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=82PpCzM2CUg |

Here is another type of transformer that is becoming popular in audio because of its characteristics. https://www.custommag.com/r-core-transformers |

Although I guess there are strong arguments for any type transformer whether it be Toroid, R-core, laminated core, isolation laminated core, and whatever.

Each type has its posotive and negative characteristics. The R core seems to have the lowest radiated energy and less input current rush than toroids. The toroids seem to be the most efficient. |

Here is how an R core transformer is wound. It is interesting to note that since the core cross section is round compared to rectangular as with a toroid, the bobbins rotate on the core during winding. There are also O cores. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WCZjsw_WDYs |
