Re: Kevin: For SET design, how much ripple is too much ripple

So the turns ratio of your OPT is the square root of the primary over secondary impedances. If your speakers are on the 8 ohm tap, then
sqrt(1600/8) = 14.142, 22mV/14.142 = 1.56mV ripple on the output. If you are using the 4 ohm tap, then sqrt(1600/4) = 20, 22mV/20 = 1.1mV. On 90-93 dB speakers I don't think it will be a problem unless you are hum-obsessed.
