I've been thinking about doing some mods for ages, but haven't quite gotten round to it yet.I've read of someone replacing the stock record level pot with a stepped attenuator, which was apparently a big improvement. Same went for replacing the standard head leads with something more heavily shielded.
I think other areas for improvement would be low-noise regulators for the head amps, bigger decoupling caps generally to keep ripple and noise low on the power supply rails, and higher quality input and output op amps (my old JVC had 4558s, which seem to be regarded as about the lowest of the low on the Tweaking Asylum).
Cheers, Jon.
