I guess you mean CLC . You will get far superior sound with a much lower value first cap . 12.5uF is too high . I tend to use CLCLC for SE with the first cap usually 1uF or less and the first choke value approaching critical inductance . Second choke/cap by ear using whatever is suitable from the parts bin . It's a scheme closer to choke input which may require for your amp a different HT transformer . I'd suggest trying this regardless , even it it means a slight change of operating point

too much inductance won't kill sound but too much capacitance might - lovetube 02:31:32 06/16/15 (6)
