From a PSU simulation, it looks like ripple is really reduced by increasing the size of the capacitor that is closer to the diodes - not quite as much as the LCRC but still reduced. In your opinion would it be worth John replacing the first cap with the 2 10uF in parallel and using one of his 4.7uF in the second position. I'm thinking of adding a 10uF in parallel across the 4.7uF I already have installed, giving a total capacitance of 14.7uF.....Colin
