Are there any places in the SEX that could potentially benefit from a tantalum resistor upgrade?  If so, specifically which resistors would benefit?

Are there any other types and locations which would benifit from an upgrade to achieve a slightly better sound?

Aaron,

Typically best place for them is plate loads but you have the c4s on the drivers and plate chokes on the power sections, but the current setting resistor on the c4s is a good place for these. Not sure I'd want to use them for bias resistors, but I guess it can't hurt to try.

HTH,

Jim
