Improve your ear with these. 834p

I just realized I don't need to buy a better phono stage than the ear 834p!
A friend kept insisting I install nos tubes in my phono stage, and I finally did. Don't think I have heard a better phono stage than what I have at home!!!
Can it get better?
What are some tweeks a'goners have discovered?
Was wondering if moving the power supply away from the signal board could improve things some more?
Or taking the 834p apart and hard-wiring it!
Also had my ear suspended with rubber bands to decouple it from the room!

Pedrillo. I have hard wired the driver stage of my Audionote 6550 SEP amp using tara labs solid core silver wiring. There was a definite and noticeable improvement, but I had to be very cautious as not to introduce noise. Sloppy wiring will act as aerials, which pick up stray airborne RFI and EM noise.

If you do attempt this I would recommend you start by identifying the signal path and restrict this mod to the signal path.

Good luck
Paul
