is there anyone that modifies audible illusions?

i have an audible illusions 2d. i have always enjoyed it, but am interested in modding it. can anyone recommend someone that mods them? also, can anyone give a comparison to a 3a or 3b? i am hoping to improve the imaging and soundstage as well as reduce the tiny bit of glare/grain in the upper mids. strong violins for instance tend to sound harsh and cause me to wince a bit. i am running a set of 6922 type3 from upscale audio. i was recommended to step down to the type2. i will try that as well...

I would try some Gold Lion 6922s from Jim McShane. They are fairly warm and should take some bite off the top end. And certainly a lot cheaper than redoing your entire system.

"Will gold lions hold up to the high gain of the ai ? Iirc the 2 series was even harder on tubes than the later 3."

Check with McShane. He is a straight shooter who won't tell you what he thinks you want to hear just to make a sale.
