Would there be bad sonic effect on my 300B SE amp if I use a Schaffner EMI power filter (IEC type)?
Follow Ups:
The first thing that comes to mind is the filter's ability to handle the power (current) requirement. Sonically, I don't know.
The Schaffner filter is rated 3A. My 300B DIY amp is 2x300B plus 2x5842 IT-coupled. I think 300B eats 1.2A and 5842 only takes in few hundred mA. I believe 3A rated filter should have sufficient current power. Is my deduction right?
A 3 amp rated one should be OK. A quick determination is to use something higher than the rating of the fuse in the amp.
