RE: Hagerman snubber...TUBE rectifiers

Neff,

We have found the B+ HV winding on the power transformer rings when attached to TUBE rectifiers, (in the several hundred kilohertz region according to Swenson), and this snubbs it. This was the case in three out of three different users / audio experimenters, who preferred the change.

The Swenson HV secondary snubber also minimizes the need for botique audiophile power cords. I just use 12 AWG Carrol wire from Lowe's.
