Has anyone tried driving a low frequency TC with a regular old stereo
type amplfier?

 Many of the high power solid state amps (like the Carver) have
bandwidth up to 100 kHz. Don't even fool with a primary cap, just drive
the primary inductor which will couple with the secondary.

Last year I had talked with James Corum, and he had talked about driving
some 1/4 wave transmission lines (coaxial using copper pipe) with a
linear RF power amp to generate fireballs.
