If your amps are monoblocks as in the schematic then you should measure the actual B+ that is going to the trans CT. Putting in a choke will reduce your B+ even more so you need to know what your actual B+ is. If your actual B+ is close to stock you won't have much leeway for a choke. regards, Dak
PS someone suggested your problem may lie elsewhere, and I would agree. You should probably rebuild the amp if it is stock or troubleshoot a possible problem if it was just rebuilt.
"does a two wire choke have an input or output to it"
No, the two leads are interchangeable.
"if I add a capacitor before I run it to ground do I use an electrolytic and if so does positive or negative go to ground."
I thought some of the other members had answered this with diagrams. Anyway, capacitors in the power supply can be various types, depending on the value of the capacitor. The negative lead goes to ground if it's a polarized capacitor.
You know, I have to advise a lot of caution when someone asks me which lead of a high voltage cap goes to ground. :(
