I agree with you, it seems that output trannies are the ONE thng that can really add bass....for example i was talking to LArry at s5electronis (an experienced guy who has sold the K502 for many years) and I told him i would like more bass with the k502s, and he said the only way is to add significantly mor eexpensive output trannies. Anyways, the bass is fine, esp since i am running a pretty low ohm load on them.
I also asked him if changing hte output caps to auricap or hovland would make a diff, and he said none at all.. i would just be wasting money. Yet, if you read some "reviews" on the net, and esp. if you listen to the hypeof some "modders" they extol these fance caps like they will conpletely alter your system. I am not sure if they do.
BTW, you really MUST hear the zen se84C ...in my mind it's still the best tube amp i have ever heard, and it;s detail is not fatiguing at all...in fact it strikes a great balance between detail & musicality.
