What Henry showed us, not Jeff, was that the right combo of small first choke (L1) and small first cap (C1) made it possible to charge C1's voltage to more than the normal max of 1.4 times the secondary RMS value. When a more "normal" LC stage followed it, regulation proved to be very good. Tuning is rather touchy (load dependent too). Personally I was troubled by the very high voltages developed in the first choke but Henry felt it was a limitation on Duncan's sim. I have not bothered to build it nor model anymore. Call me old school but I have no problem with a regular choke input filter.
