Pre Amp Filter Cap

Hey guys just slowly putting my 50watt together and i have a question... in the list of parts the george has on the forum it says you should use a
16 475v cap for the pre amp filter..... now ive got a 16/16uf 450v cap

im wondering if the 450v cap would work fine in place of the 475v cap or will it go ka-boom?

thanks

It will work fine, although the 16uF/475VDC cap is a single axial cap, and yours is a dual-16uF can.

Addictive? I might as well send George a bank card off my checking account, it would speed things up when I order...........or he could just pick and choose and send me stuff off it........

If you're already standing in front of the 50-watt the 100 isn't that much worse!!!
