Size for first two filters

[dude]

If I wanted to make a 6V6 Plexi but wanted to be able to use EL34's too, instead of two filter cans at 32/32uf would it be better to use the first can at 50/50uf, other at 32/32uf ? Using GZ34 R tube or 5AR4 or diodes.
 
Also the bias caps, would 10uf @ 100v be good enough for the larger tubes, 6L6s, EL34's?


Thanks,

PS filtering depends 1st on what regulator, some tube type have max cap values, SS loves anything withing reason, I use 50 - 100uf.
next comes the magical PS sag, it's to complex for me so I design to have none, or very little, one less thing to fret about

Doug uses 10uf in both the 6V6 plexi and Plexi 50 bias circuits  so you should be good to go with either one..


a good read on bias supplies is here  http://www.valvewizard.co.uk/bias.html


In Dougs 6V6 plexi he uses a 40uf before the choke. In the 50watt plexi there is 100uf capacitance as the reservoir filter.   Since either one has a solid state rectifier then there are no constraints
placed by a rectifier tube as to input capacitance. I would think that using 50/50uf can up front would be ok for both.

That's what I was thinking, 50/50 first can, choke between the two 50uf's.
