RE: Film cap off rectifier

What effect would a smaller cap have in this location?

A smaller C1 will always present less loading to the rectifier - tube or SS.
Also, faster recovery time which translates into a faster sonic signature.
Depending upon other factors, you may or may not hear the difference but the rectifier will notice it.

Cheers,
W
