Full Wave Bridge Rectifier Recommendations Please.

[goskers]

I have been searching long and hard for some specific recommendations in regards to fullwave bridge rectifiers. A couple of articles that I read stated that bridge rectifiers are more desirable in amplifier power supplies than ultrafast discrete rect.

It was also stated in a couple places that an oversized bridge would be well worth the extra dollar spent.

What are some of your experiences? Any recommendations?

I am building some ucd based amps by the way.

Thanks

A bridge is a term to describe how discrete diodes are connected. Typically, 4 diodes are connected in such a way that they rectify in a full-wave manner. You can buy bridge rectifiers that are composed of standard "p-n" diodes or "High Speed Soft Recovery" diodes.

Whether you use discrete diodes or a bridge is of no consequence.

I suggest you have a look at Big Parsnip's group buy if you are interested in descrete, fast bridge rectifiers.
