Tre', an FFT plot of diode current pulses does not reveal any RF. Energy even at 20 kHz is 70 dB below the 60 Hz spike. I really think this issue has been blown way out of proportion by audiophiles looking for a way to explain what they hear. With a 20,000 uF capacitor in the circuit I posted, current pulses through the diodes are still nearly 1mS wide. In addition, their corners aren't sharp, probably due to the slope I mentioned previously. This just isn't RF territory.
