Home Tube DIY Asylum

Do It Yourself (DIY) paradise for tube and SET project builders.

Yes, I think so

Yes, 107Hz is pretty close. In reality, you will want to tweak the value of the C to find the resonance for your 2X line frequency. But now, you have created a capacitive divider at high frequencies. If you follow this LC tank with a shunt 50uF cap, just for example, the ultimate rejection of high frequency noise can be no better than 0.22/(0.22+50) = -47dB. Without the 0.22uF cap, the high frequency rejection will continue to fall at a -12dB octave rate. All of these discussions assume a low ESR, low ESL 50uF cap, or one that is well bypassed by smaller caps. As always, try it and see which way you prefer the sound.
