RE: replacing 1N4003 with better diode at power amp stage...advices pls

70.162.3.189

The best diodes you can use as rectifiers for your PS are the Cree Schottky diodes available from Parts Connection in several flavors : 2, 4, 6 & 10 Amp. Then install snubbers on the output of all your PS bridges with a 0.01 uF stacked film cap in series with a 4/8 ohm CC R across the output of the bridges with the cap on the + output for a + supply & the R connected to Gd. & visa-versa for a - output supply.

Happy Listening !
