16+16, 16+32 or 32+32 ?

Post by thames »

I plan to order a filter caps kit for my late 70s 504.

What are the difference between these 3 caps ?

very little audible difference.
I would select the same value as originally in your amp.

+1, there's little or no audible difference, so (all other things being equal) just use the same value that is in there now.

If you're getting them locally, the 32+32 are much easier to find. VHR sells the 16+32 cap.
