Classic gear from yesteryear; vintage audio standing the test of time.

RE: Dynaco SCA-35 question

Yes, the plate of that section is listed at 55 volts. Even at warmup before the tubes draw the supply down I bet that plate never goes over 100-120 volts. The screen will be below that, and the cathode will be around ground... No way that cap sees over 100-120 volts at turn on if that schematic is correct. Of course it sees 30-40 volts tops at steady state.
