[AMPS] equalizing resistors/caps on small HV power supply??

[110773.133@compuserve.com (Mark D. Fain)]

I need to build a small HV supply that will give about 1200 vdc @ 200 mA. 
I found several older designs that use 3 discrete diodes in each leg of the
F.W. bridge, but didn't include any equalizing resistors/caps across them. 
All of the newer designs seem to include the equalizing componets  but are
also designed for much higher voltages and currents.  Does a small supply
such as mine need them?

Thanks,

Mark KC8EYZ
