That was my bad..When I used 15uf and 20uf caps,I was no longer using the 5V4 rect..I was using Schotkys but my friend is running a pair W4s and he is using a 16uf film off the 5V4..While it calls for 10uf in the tube manual,it's also at a higher voltage but Josh did put inrush limiters in with it and he hasn't had issues. I agree that keeping at 10uf in this case is ok with the 5V4 and he should increase after the choke.Going to 15uf is not really that big a deal all in all..Look what Dennis Hadd does with a GZ34,hanging 1200uf off it..Talk about insane.
