Moderators, don't beat me up too much for this but I found this on ebay today. I know there will be alot of aleph-x's being built soon and hope this helps some of the builders.

The previous auction has expired so the new one is at: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=7287&item=2596844068
The specifications for the diodes can be found at: http://www.st.com/stonline/books/pdf/docs/2963.pdf
I am not the seller. I spotted them and thought they would be of interest.

If you put some snubber caps accross the diodes this will help reduce any HF junk that is created by the switching.
You could have a look at this thread here (can I possibly plug this any more? ) if you are intrested in using these diodes for a power supply (They are very close to the BYW99W-200's that are now used in the PASS equipment I believe).

kilowattski said:I believe one of their suggested applications is power supplies.
Guy, SMPS are also power supplies and for those, I guess ultra fast recovery types are needed but for low tech Linear Amplifier PSU's (Toroid-Diode-Cap combo) I have read that the ultra fast types are a bad idea and that "Soft recovery" types are in order.
So if I understand you, these are good for Power amp applications as well?? And bigparsnip says that using snubbing caps will make them as good as any other .... correct?
If you have a look in the link below you should find an answer to your questions of sorts (or at least on opinion from someone who is rather well respected round here.
