Claim:
1. A converter arrangement comprising: a first rectifier having an AC input and a DC output with two DC output poles; a capacitance connected between the DC output poles of the first rectifier; a second rectifier having an AC input with two AC input poles and a DC output with two DC output poles, wherein the DC output of the second rectifier is connected between the DC output poles of the first rectifier; and a magnetic amplifier having at least one control winding and at least one AC winding, wherein an alternating current through the at least one AC winding is controlled by a direct current through the at least one control winding and wherein the at least one control winding of the magnetic amplifier is connected between the DC output poles of the first rectifier; wherein the at least one AC winding of the magnetic amplifier is connected in series with the AC input of the second rectifier.
