I've been talking to a toroidal transformer manufacturer about an 800v 400va transformer.
They have suggested that, as it's for audio use, they wind it on a 500va core, which is OK.
Question is, the transformer I might have ordered from Antec (in USA) would have had 2 x 400v secondarys, so is that way any better (or worse) than 1 x 800v secondary ?
It would be used with a hybrid bridge so a centre tap would not be needed.
