Using 33000uF caps in chipamp.com PSU?

Hubba · 9th November 2010, 12:39 PM

To keep myself bussy, I've ordered a stereo LM3886 kit including one PSU board from chipap.com. From my last project I have 2 33000uF/40V caps left. Does anyone have any suggestions as to how I might implement them in the standard PSU? Are there any benefits of doing so, and do I need to change a hole bunch of other components (not that there are so many to begin with...)

Thanks,
Fredrik

No changes needed, really. If you've got the caps, use them, as long as they fit. I don't have issues with 2x10000uf caps per channel, it sounds great, but more capacitance won't hurt.
