[Amps] FW: Transformer Question

52uf is much too much but they use it so this way they do not have to stock more caps.  They use the 270uf in all their amps regardless of how many they use.

Thanks, you are correct.  So 210 / 4 = 52.5 uF for the 811H.

...  100uF / 5 = 20 uF.    811H is 120 / 6 = 20uf.  So both are the same,
the 811H caps just have some additional voltage headroom.
