Tony,
actually, as we continue our quest for life after Black Gates, we have found we can get away with smaller value filmcaps without a noise penalty. the most recent LD stereo chassis uses only about half of the power supply filtering capacitor values that we used to use, and is the quietest build we've ever had.
With regards to your question, there doesn't seem to be any problem with your configuration. Only one thing to be careful about is the value of the first cap after the rectifier. It should be no larger than what the data sheet specifies.
