RE: peak currents not a major concern for low power SE

I have run a flywheel filter on a SE 45 stereo amp for a few years with no component failure.

The DC load was around 96mA, B+ over 500V since it was a parafeed circuit.

The Triad C56U L1 choke is rated for 2A, it is a robust part.

I also doubled up the rectifier diodes and used motor run caps for C1.

Reports of a "psychoacoustic" effect or something that will make a sound like a guitar effects processor or AM radio by using a flywheel filter in your amp is simply not based in reality , IME.
