Paradisea owners

I'd like to know what Paradisea owners discovered after switching to another DAC in the $1000 range.

This is where it all begins.... God help you...or budha...or Allah...somebody, help poor Mingles!

The input of my preamp is 100k. The Paradisea output is 800 ohms. Yep, this is where it all starts! Before I do anything crazy, I'd like to try some different tubes. I haven't used anything other than the stock JAN 5670. I'd also like to experiment with output caps (Obbligato Copper, Mundorf SIO). Generally speaking, I can keep myself amused and engaged with tweaks like this if the unit is good to begin with.
