RE: Here's what I'd do

Update: I replaced the 0.47uF K40Y coupling cap with a 0.22uF K40Y cap. While the 0.22uF cap needs to be broken in, there was a perceived improvement in the dynamics and transients. Sharp attacks appeared my startling and noticeable.

I also discovered that using multi-stranded silver coated copper hook-up wire is a no-no in my system. I switched over to using solid 99.99 silver and the sound improvement was very noticeable. No more glassy, etchiness in the upper mids and lower treble region. For whatever reason, my amp does not like the silver coated copper hook-up wire.
