These capacitors worked extremely well when I nneded to smooth / filter out the ripple on the bridge rectifier output. This really cleaned up the ST VAC wave form. I used 8,000uf on my ST 15 and 4,000uf on mt ST 7.5. Here is the link where they are currently on sale: http://www.mpja.com/1000uF-100VDC-Filter-Cap/productinfo/18070%20CR/

Here is an excellent link on ST Wave Form Regulation explaining how to install these filter capacitors: http://www.microcogen.info/index.php?topic=1833.msg25491#msg25491
