Please Help Me Choose Filter Capacitors Kenwood KR-6600

[gort69]

Hi folks -

I will be replacing the filter caps in my KR-6600 and will be ordering from Mouser. The originals are 8200uf 56V, but there seems to be a better selection in 63V. I need the 35mm diameter to fit the original clamps.

In the following link from Mouser, only the first 5 listed are in stock, and would prefer to choose from those. Would be very interested in the rationale for your choice, as I'm not certain which spec I should be looking at.

Thanks very much for any help!

Open your search parameters to also allow 80V caps and the selection nearly doubles with the same case diameter and lead spacing.

IMO, for power supply filtering a higher ESR is not an issue, and the variation in the available parts is negligible anyway.

Generally, higher insulation voltage is seldom an issue other than it can result in a larger package with higher cost.

Of the pieces in the selection table, I might choose this one http://www.mouser.com/ProductDetail...=sGAEpiMZZMtZ1n0r9vR22eVOVN2I0zMFq6KW3YgdImI= primarily becasue with all other ratings being relatively equal it has the lowest rated ripple current.

Thanks for the reply Watthour - that's what I'll get.
