Values  Reply with quote  

I just recieved a Valve Jr. From my girlfriend for my Birthday and want to wire a point to point turret board however this will be the first amp I have worked on and I'm a little sketchy about it and was wondering if I could get some advice on cap values.... Per the schematics the values are 22uf @ 25V and 22uf @ 450V using Illinois caps, I would like to use Sprague but the values are 25uf @25V and 20uf @ 450V or 20uf @ 500V I've been told that the small capacitance difference should not matter... Is this correct?

Thanks

Yes, that is true. A 25uF @ 25v is ideal.
