V-Cap ODAM Capacitor Upgrade in VTL 2.5i Pre?


I recently purchased a VTL 2.5i Preamp that I am considering upgrading with V-Cap ODAM caps. I really like the VTL sound, but am wondering if I can maximize it further. Has anyone upgraded their VTL with higher end caps or ODAMs specifically?

Of course, like many audiophile I sometimes sell gear to try something new. Does anyone have experience upgrading components like caps and then reselling gear? If so, would you expect this to impact resale significantly?

I used to have that same preamp. Better caps will help the sonics but doubt you'll get your money back. May want to consider sticking with copper foil caps though. Believe the ODAMS are metalized film. At some point though you may want to consider upgrading the pre to a 5.5 or 6.5.
