they must have a large amount of DCR in the secondary of their power transformer and/or the current supplied must be comparatively small.
"Calculating is beyond most of us."
As I said, designing power supplies for audio circuits should be left to the engineers.
Question, which Cary Audio amp uses 470uf as an input cap in the power supply? Thanks.

- I guess 40uf is not the maximum input cap value for a 5u4. Thanks for the info. - Tre' 15:10:45 07/24/23 (2)
