Mods to Primaluna Evo400 preamp

Has anyone modded their Primaluna Evo400 preamp? Or a similar preamp / integrated?

I'm looking for recommendations to tweaks. Does changing the input jacks to higher quality, or swapping capacitors help?

I am enjoying this pre, and have locked into a supply of 12AU7 tubes. I don't see changing it anytime soon. So therefore, it's time to mod!

Finally... if anyone has a circuit diagram, that would be super helpful.

Yikes! May as well spend a little more for something like ARC, VAC, etc. I would enjoy it as is with NOS tubes also in the rectifier slots-pricey but you already know that. If it were an integrated amp, the coupling caps can make an audible "improvement." No way you'll get a schematic, unless you had an "inside connection" with an authorized service guy that has access to PL info. Do fancy boutique input/speaker jacks REALLY improve SQ? 🤔 Maybe with the pedigree solder and Nordost Odin cable?
