But what I am trying to get my head around for the benefit of all here is what makes a "better" diode?
Now the more experienced folks here all know about Schottky, silicon carbide, and UF series diodes. These can make improvements.
But simply tearing out a bridge and replacing it with four 1N4007 diodes hardly seems plausible. 1N5xxx can carry three amps versus 1 amp but for a tube amp B+ at 200ma average this is gross overkill.
Just trying to control the spread of fokelore. If someone wants to replace their bridge with single diodes, they should know something about diodes and not just "follow the crowd".
