RE: Choke Saturation

Jack
I have measured the current going into the choke and out of the choke at idle as well as with full power driven by a 1khz signal into the amp.The choke saturates and becomes somewhat magnetic but not only that,its effective filtering is almost non-existent vs a resistor in its place.In the Dyna Mk3s,they do better as far as filtering but where that choke would work well is an ElCheapo where the total circuit draws 100ma or less.
