I'm building a desktop amp.
Power will be a center tap transformer.
The power supply is a dual rail 317/337 in the standard arrangement
with filter caps that go from each rail to the center tap of the transformer.
The ground return from the headphone jack also goes directly to the
center tap of the transformer.
Now the question is, since the amp board has only a ground reference for the
input and feedback resistors, should the local filter caps go from rail to rail or
rail to ground? Which would be more effective?
Here is a picture of the power supply for clarity.
Thanks
