Hi Wayne,
I see now. Thanks for the lesson. I always note a lot of guys fiddling around replacing filter caps with larger ones, and wondered if it would affect the B+ and they would also have to re-calculate what resistors were in the filter. Now I know using the larger caps will not affect the B+.
This next question probably will affect it, but maybe insignificantly. What if one added another stage to the filter? After the last cap, say a cap with the same value, rating, etc. which would be preceded by a small value, but appropriate wattage resistor?
I know I have some 220mF caps that I scrapped out of a computer(Foreplay uses this value), but I'm not sure about the Paramours. I'll have to look when I get home.
Actually, my B+ runs a tad high as I recall.
Thanks again for the lesson and link! Very interesting.
Mark
