I bought the Lundahl chokes for L1 and was not able to us them and they were insultingly sharp. For the L1 you would need more henries and more DCR, the higher DCR will sound better and the “bad” and “cheap” Hammond chokes worked very fine. You might go even for 20-25H of L1 and do not use the R23 bleeder. Whatever you do will be fine, juts keep input choke with at least triple critical inductance, a small following cap, the plate supple ~400V and ripples after the C2 responsibly low. If you Luis (the builder) is wiling to crate a federal case around his section and experiments with C2 then it is fine. But you will be eventually very surprised how irrelevant it really is. Put ANY cap in there and let it work. Then if you wish you can excrement with better or kinkier cap or play with bypassing it… Really, Antonio, this not the subject that you need my help as the C2 is not something that responsible for the Milq sound. Do whatever you and your builder feel comfortable.
