;) No, I have never used softstart up to 500w, toroids included ... and yes, only toroids really need softstarts .... apart from VERY big transformers .... I reckon you will have seperate boxes, so you can turn on each transformer one at a time, and count to 10 in between :D
 
but the problem is not when i try to fill all the Caps?

if i connect the 94000uf (im using two rectifiers PCBs for each Transformer, each one with 10 x 4700uf caps) when i turn on the transformer switch is not too much power peak that need to be used to fill the caps? its why im asking if i need an softstart circuit (sorry for my english, hope you understand me).
