||Angel,
|About 20 to 25 uF is about a minimum used by all amp manufacturers on
|the B+ supply. Most circuits are at least sized X2 when considering the
|voltage. However, I've seen a bunch by manufacturers such as Alpha, QRO,
|etc use Qty. (8) 220 uF @ 450V in series giving a 27.5 uF @ 3600 Vdc
|rating. This is on a 2500 Vdc supply. I have also seen some use just
|slightly over the B+ voltage in lower voltage amps around 900-1500 Vdc
|range, maybe 100 to 450 Vdc over.
