Default Pre3 upgrade again

Hi Folks,
Only posted once been a member for nearly a decade but visited many times prior to joining, anyway great information and fun so thank you all.
I had a noisy Alps 50k pot which was in a Pre3 XL version purchased from a friend, sold my Pre3 in 2012, basic version, which was stupid but the circle of life, The pot had the shunt mod with Carbon Amtrans 47K, sounded very very good but a tiny bit of glare. Anyway to lessen the gain I now have the 20K Alps pot shunted with the new Audio Note Niobium resistors, 68K, not the silver ones, I also have installed the 0.1uf Mojotone mineral T oil caps, sounds really musical, clear and detailed, not a hint of glare, much better than I was hoping for! they have all been in for two weeks now and sound a bit better for the time.
Just thought I would share this in case any one wondered what these caps and resistors were like.
Cheers
