| Sleebo_The_Beebo | Re: Is it OK to use 40uF right after 5Y3GT? IMO it's OK but ... you may stress the 5y3 a little bit when the cap charges when you first turn your amp on. In other words, a lower cap value would help to extend the life of the 5y3. If you have to go with that much capacitence, you might try using a 5u4 instead. |
