Default Rail Voltage Question - 0.4v Difference

Hi

This may seems like a stupid question, but I have a 23-0-23 DC supply after rectification and filtering.

The problem is that the measured output is in fact 22.7-0-23.1

Is this going to cause problems i.e. offset voltages, etc. OR can I try an in series diode (but that's going to be 0.7v). OR wil I have to go down the LM338 route to regulate (but then I lose 3v for the LM) and end up with around a 20-0-20 supply.

I cannot unwind anything on the Tx (sealed) so any ideas appreciated.....or am I worrying over nothing.
