RE: 15uF ... main bypass cap value for SE amplifiers

"Do you know why he does that?"

Quote from DF published 3/9/2018

"So, the cap-banks on the cathodes of all tubes, and plate supplies of driver stages become a BIG DEAL. Both require extensive capacitor bypassing in order to even approach the response and bandwidth of a good push/pull amp. And those big uF caps never work in SE-- use a MAX. of 15uF or so..."
