Ariel at Ayre knows how to properly implement the filter internal to the integrated amplifier AND figure out where to put that really important bypassed cap in the circuit so it stays formed ( which is what DBS does ).
I was a DIY guy in the 80’s, like I said have at it..first duplicate the FIRE pigtails and the DBS , get the DIP, the WIMA caps, and bypass them....let us know how ya do.....I am all ears....
of course, I am retired, working the 24/7/365 gratis support hotline.....my inputs are worth exactly what ya paid for them....
Trout - none of this is aimed at you..you are on the right path.
as much as you like the REGA CD check out the Aesthetix, you get the CD and a whold class DAC in one box. It can also be upgraded later to two higher levels Signature and Eclipse.
have fun
