Recommendation on a modding service?

I wanted to ask the community to recommend or note a modding service. I am going to upgrade an anthem 225 int. The amp at $1600 is unbelievable, but the substitution of higher grade parts would make it a giant killer. And as we all know products are designed to a certain price point. I love the sound and power of the unit and want to squeeze all I can out of it. Thanks!

A giant killer??? IMO your better off taking the $1600, the mod cost and getting something better

simple rule of audio equipment is to satisfy the owner. if satisfaction and joy is there, than the unit is great.

Naivete being the main factor with that statement. What you don't know can't hurt you, right? I'd ask Chris where the money would be best spent.

upgrade company also knows the 225 like the back of their hand. They will provide a new unit with their signature mod for $225 over the msrp.....
no, i wont get anything more expensive....and that is the rub. EXPENSIVE, with greatly diminished returns. I do not tolerate audiophile snobbery. i have no desire to spend $8500.00 on an integrated because it has a certain name with a 5% improvement in musicality. I will check parts connexion as well and appreciate THE specific answers answers to my question. If I wanted "IMO" by people I would have asked for it.
