The would according the engineer Nelson Pass

"BIGGER and heavier is BETTER. Bigger transformers and wires load down less. Big capacitors hold more charge."

"Is there such a thing as too big? Certainly there are diminishing returns as we get bigger. When a transformer is delivering 1 watt to a preamp circuit, going from a one kilowatt rating to two kilowatts isn't going to buy you much improvement. This consideration is not much of a deterrent to the average audiophile, however." If you disagree please take it up with Mr. Pass. I ain't no maverick. Tweekie
