PL400 power transformer inrush current

[Rick.ta.fied]

Hi new member here, I have in front of me a PL400 not sure if its a series I or II, it has the analog meters, there is WOPL capacitor upgrade and rectifier and snubber PCB over the top of bridge rectifier, also has the speaker relay protection PCB. The driver and outputs appear original. My question is about inrush power transformer current, I don't see any type of soft start replay current limiter? I'm concerned the upgrades on this amplifier did not address this concern as the upgraded B+/- capacitors from 5900uf to 15000uf, is this a issue or is the power transformer stout enough as to not worry about it?

Hundreds of 400's with power supply cap upgrade are doing just fine with no current limiter.
Course most of them have a 50 amp bridge rectifier..no transformer proble.s.

Ok thanks, I was thinking with the very large capacitor upgrade it may be a issue.

Nope. No issue...you already have the 50A rectifier if you have the White Oak snubber installed.
