[QUOTE="handsome, post: 48869, member: 772"] a voltage doubler is a good call but one mustn't forget they have much less current capability than a standard supply although in this design current draw is very minimal and thus the point is largely moot....however it might allow for current regulation which i greatly prefer over voltage regulation...I have found one needs about 6 volts overhead to implement current regulation despite calculation showing a bit less (with LM series regulators). the complete absence of inrush currents can only extend valve life and they seem to sound a lot better too......
