Top resistors

Mozartfan, there are a number of signal resistors which the 2 watts ones can be replace with a quarter watt. 

The Vishay TXs are one of the best, if not the best for use in the Jadis. 

Zipost, what have you replaced the TXs with, in a well tuned system, i too struggle To find that correct balance, some distortion and warmth certainly adds so ruggedness and liveliness and the Vishays undeniably have superior full and performance, detail, clarity and extended frequency response does sound cooler which opens up the extremes which smoothness making your experience of overly refined very likely.

It may excel on classical pieces mostly with the added refinement.

Yes I have the V Zfoils on order, and should be installed in the Jadis DPL linestage (modded with M EVO Silvergold caps)  next week,
If I do like the Zfoils vs the Jadis 20 yr old stock metals,, I will add Zfoils to the Defy7. 
From everything i've read and the YT video on the Zfoils,,I have good expectations on the Zfoils as making the DPL more quiet, more open sound stage etc etc . 
The Mundorf EVO Silvergold caps, made nice gaisn in my Jadis DPL, Jadis Defy7 and the Cayin CD17 Mark1. all can be seen in my YT vids.
Lots of tweaks/upgrades/mods in the near future,, stay tuned...
New Millennium Tweeters arrived,, new interconnects with silver coated (2 types)  vs pure copper RCA screw locks as per Navships, etc etc etc,,Lots of tweaks to share over the comming weeks/months.

My tech ordered the Zfoils, most arrived, others are special orders, TI will allow folks to call in for any value they need, price bumps up a few $'s. 
This is for the Jadis DPL , upgarde should be complete early next week, will posta  YT vid/comments.
If I like em, will employ in the Defy7.
Stay tuned for reports.

@mozartfan and hi to all.
On a visit you have made on the YT channel of shawn sullivan. You don't speak well of the vishay but also recommend the Takman's brand.
Unless this post is timeless, today you have changed your mind in favor of Visahy TX resistor, isn't?

Did anybody compare directory ThePath Audio resistors vs regular Duelund (not custom) resistors ?
What is difference in the sound signature?
