Hi rdf,

Have you heard the supply ?? Do so !!

I'd personally would wanna add two more 100uF of oliers, and connect them to your existing 100 uFers, in SERIES, ( so you can HEAR 50 uF or less in C's ), and tell us how it sounds playing music, which is the goal of all this.

Use heavy wiring and / or multiple paralleled clip leads from the rectifier to the end of the filter chain.

I'd really prefer listening to the .32 HY Ls over your .6HY/11 ohms ones, due to its smaller core, having less of an effect dynamically upon the amplifier. This is another case where smaller is better. As a guide, over 1/2 a Hy is too big. Over 50 uF is too much C.

Great to hear people are OPEN to experiment and listen. Progress is being made. We will soon be out of the dark ages and using techniques that flat-out work well, quite well, which is all that matters IMHO.
