yep, HoosierAudio has pretty much nailed it.

If your 919 is sounding thin, its not the tuner's fault. the caps need to be upgraded. would also add some bypass caps on the main filter caps in the PS, as well as the output stage coupling caps. I have several copies of both Sansui tuners; and while none of them are stock, the sound quality on the 919 is so close to the 9900; not sure I could tell which is which. Both are quite excellent. If you lived closer, could show you what you need to do.

best.
