Rpw,
I replaced all the steel chassis fasteners with those of musical brass. Between the actual transformer and the chassis I placed 3 Audiopoint .2's on 3 Audiopoint APCD2's all of brass. This was all tensioned and secured with a brass rod and locking hardware. I took care to mark on the transformer and the chassis as to their orientation so as to maintain the measured factory noise level the same. I replaced the only 2 Dale fixed resistor values that are always in the signal path with Z foils from Vishay. All simple stuff I always do the steel for brass replacement for all my components and all my transformers are direct coupled as described with .2's Audiopoints or larger. Tom
