Who does best SS preamp modifications?

Macrojack in all due respect.......It wasn't exactly what Angela was asking.....was it.

You don't see me pushing anyone straight to the most recent adds on AgoN unless someone ask me privately.....do you???

Another thing. Modifications goal is not to overhaul , dramatically change or alter the piece of gear in question in the matter that would change its character or signature qualities and sound. Every idiot can do that. The art of moding is to improve on already good design and squeez the last bit of performance and/or lightly season to taste. IMHO

If Angela is interested in older or vintage designs she must have a good reason to do so.
If someone is interested in SS preamp, amp or whatever....I don't try to force on her/him my own preferances - which are tubes but away. Since Angela is not as seasoned as some here on this forum ( including myself ) it would make sense to give her the freedom to learn, ask questions and let her decide what is best for her.

Angela, if you are tring to put together nice rig without breaking the bank there are few excellent choices out there which can be had or be build to your specification and taste for well under 1K. Shot me an email - I will be more then happy to talk to you about those option.

Best regards

Thanks for your replies so far.
Also, to thoose who sent private emails, thanks as well.
I would rather just have my trusty old preamp modded than buy another one. The choice of which modder to choose, based on your emails is indeed a tough one!
Ok,
if you had to choose one of the following modders to modify a solid-state preamp for the very best sonics, which oif the following 4 would you choose:
1. RHB Sound Dezigns [Bob Backert]
2. Audio Horizons [Joseph Chow]
3. Reference Audio Mods [Kyle Takenaga]
4. The Upgrade Company [David Schulte]
Thanks again for your help and recommendations!

Give Paul Weitzel at TRL a call. He may be able to help. Has modified and built several things for me.

Modding reduces the resale value in almost every case. There are also warranty ramnifications.

Macrojack is right. Modding does not necessarily improve the sound. That's a subjective appraisal.

I'd simply seek components that are system compatible and suit your listening preferences. You have a boatload to choose from.

However, it's your money.
