I have a completed C4S board for my SEX amp and just received my Integration Kit (thanks Queen Eileen!) and I'm curious about the order of implimentation to fully appreciate the upgrades.
I have to admit I have not been in a hurry to install the SEX kit, there is something "organic" (?) in my mind about the p2p wiring of the original builds.
Anyway I'm just wondering if installing 1 first and enjoying the benefits before installing the 2nd and realizing each contribution would outweigh the expected wow factor of the double upgrade.
Like I say, I'm just looking for opinions on the upgrades and what each will mean to what is already a fine sounding pair if components.
Thanks

Without a doubt make one change at a time.  I built my S.E.X. amp, completed the voltage checks, then powered it down and installed the C4S so i have no idea what it sounds like without it.  I kind of regret doing that. I am 99.9% sure its better with the C4S, it would just be nice to know that from first hand experience.
