Today I am start building my JLH power amplifier. I bought on eBay two PCB for voltage regulator. Please look PCB and heatsink placing and screw for mounting. I think use ultra fast diode (not schottky) Please help me select shunt capacitors for this 8 diode in parallel. What is better ceramic C0G, NP0 or Wima MKS polyester capacitors?

I'd stick with polyesters... stability and tempco just doesn't matter here. Make sure you get a high enough voltage rating, and the correct lead pitch to fit the pcb... and without knowing the circuit can't tell you what that voltage rating would be.
 
my 2c: For shunting rectifiers in the psu you are probably not needing something exotic - multilayer ceramic should be perfectly good. Buy from a reputable place, there's a lot of junk on the market and supply chains in the electronics industry are strained in certain areas.

Note that multilayer ceramic should not have the self-oscillation problems of the single layer devices.
 
Sorry I can not post shematic here, because i buy this board on eBay and this board have (C). You can write message to ebay seller and ask about shematic. This seller can sent to you shematic without value. I buy the PCB and receive full shematic with all value and BOM.
 
The circuit belongs to JLH, the eb seller is probably in China?
Is it the same as the JLH 69 or 96 ? or perhaps a variation ?

I believe many of the pcbs and kits from China on eb are straight or very slightly modified copies. Martin Levinson, Musical Fidelity, JLH, Nelson Pass, Naim, Marantz etc
 
Hi,
the seller should support his customers.
If the level of support available from your seller is insufficient, then you have chosen the wrong seller.

What do you need and want?
cheap,
fake,
copy,
stolen,
customer support,
licensed manufacturer.

You choose.
