I did a similar thing with an EICO HF89 with all high quality caps, resistors, wire, an upgraded power supply to CLC, and was totally underwhelmed by the result. It has good points but it did not reveal the emotion in the music which really separates a good amp from the others. I think a push pull amp should probably be rebuilt with parts that is as close to stock as you can find rather than using "precision" or boutique parts. It doesn't seem that using premium parts will necessarily lead to a better sounding amp.
On the other hand single ended amps are a different story. cheers, Dak
