I think reflowing all of your solder joints can be a good idea/approach. It worked for me in the past for correcting a problem (oscillation...).
I agree It is much easier on a PCB though.

I am enjoying my new preamp (VTA sp-14) and it seems to be burning in/mellowing out quite nicely.
I was a bit unsettled at first, as it seemed a bit bright and strident. That was not an effect I had from any previous DIY preamp builds I'd done.
It's as quiet as a church mouse lol. Seems to have a little bit more gain than I'm used to or need though.
It wasn't my first choice, and a bit more $ than I was looking to spend, but It satisfied the "DIY" itch...
