Creative T6300 Power Supply Problem

[NachuNazir]

Heyy, anyone help me to find the real capacitor used in my Creative T6300 Power Board.The capacitor is indicated as C20. If anybody has the same Home theatre , please send me the power board picture of front and backside. Also tell me the capacitor have used. Thank You

It's just a small capacitor across the output of the bridge rectifier, it has no effect on the working of the PSU and can quite happily be left out (most PSU's don't have such a capacitor at all).

These small HV capacitors commonly go S/C, and often explode - but if you wanted to add one?, something like 470pF 2Kv would be fine. Personally I'd just leave it out - although if you're in an area of particularly poor mains, it 'might' have some tiny effect.

Thanks.. But there is a sound quality problem.. the sound is too loud and heavy bass than that of it were before.

That's nothing to do with the small capacitor, it won't affect the sound at all.
