    Any suggestions for making a rectifier bridge? Do I need one for each 12V supply from the transformer. I have got some stock items but I know theyre far from ideal and I have enough suitable schottkies to make a bridge. All help much appreciated

    if your using seprate windings on the transformer for each channel you'll need one for each winding,if your olny using 1 winding then its up to you wether you use one or 2 bridges
