Tube Amp, Preamp upgrades -- what did you do that improved your units?

Hi folks,
If you upgraded a point-to-point wired tube amp or preamp, what did you upgrade?
I assume capacitors, but was there anything else which you upgraded that made a genuine difference for the sound?
I am looking into improving the caps in my Quicksilver stuff, but before doing that, I am curious if there's anything in addition to caps which I should consider.
Thanks.

This is an old thread but grannyring, if you see this, I am interested in thoughts about upgrading my Quicksilver v4 amps. They are the earlier transformer models but I use KT-150 tubes. I love it but wonder what might make it even better. It was upgraded with mundorf supreme caps before I bought it.

I have a Berning tube preamp and the v4 feeds Verity Parsifal encores and a six pack of REL G2 subs 

Thanks for thoughts!
