I was hoping the specs would tell what would be needed. I have to desolder a couple of things to see the diodes. Be nice to know what devices people have tried and like. Lots of stuff on ebay... It's been my experience that higher than necessary rated devices sound better. Just like larger power cord wire sound better than thinner wire even though the thin wire can deliver the current safely. Higher rated bipolar output devices sound better. It's extremely likely that high current diodes would sound better, IMO. For some reason I seem to be having a difficult time getting this point across. Tweaker

You are entitled to your opinion, but what you say is not necessarily true. Within a given type of diode, constructing the diode to tolerate higher current can require some sacrifice in terms of noise generated by the diode itself. I don't think you want to wildly exceed the current rating needed, in this case.
Lew, When I look for noise stats on diodes I don't see any. Is there a stat that one can look at that you can infer higher or lower level of noise in a diode?? Thanks, Tweaker
