*Important notes for handling transformer boxes.*

If a DC current is passed through the transformer, the core wound with iron wire will become magnetized like an electromagnet, significantly degrading the transformer's sound quality. A magnetized transformer requires a special demagnetization process.

Absolutely avoid passing DC current, such as phantom power or measuring the transformer with a tester.
