What will be the optimal value for a LCL power supply filter for a 2a3 2,5v Dc filament.

You want to heat your 2A3s with 5V?
Tell us about your power transformer? You could do just an LC filter if you have a 6.3V winding with a center tap using a full wave rectifier.

You may find a Coleman reg with choke input DC is the way to go . Filament supplies tend to get awfully large , heavy and expensive when you go LCL .

I will be the dissenting voice and say not to use Coleman regulators with 2A3s unless you're making a headphone amp.
What is the AC current rating of your 2.5V winding?

5amp each
I have tried ac with a center pot , sounds good but too noisy for my 102db fullrange speaker,
I currently use a coleman reg with a Schootky rectifier and a CRC filter ( 47000uf / 0,1R/47000uf )
Very very quiet but the 2a3 souds too clean to be true . So that’s why i want to experiment something else ..
