Ok from time to time, I will come back to this thread to post questions regarding the Stereo Amp I am building, rather than creating a new thread for every issue I encounter.
1st things first. I've shelved the amp kit, and started with the power supply.
the toroids will be linked to give v1 0 v+ output. After rectification, comes the caps. What is best practice here?
Some diagrams show 2 caps per side. Others say one big one.
Best I've seen so far is 2 per side, and then it's these puppies:

Do I really need 4 of these for a 2 x 50w amp?
The rule of thumb is 1000uf for every ampere drawn.
So how many amps can I expect from a 2 x 50w amp?
Will 10K uf be sufficient?
Where Is the best place to buy caps from?
