I did a similar 'mass upgrade' of a Dac many years ago. I changed out 50+ parts with similar caps from Mundorf, Shinkoh resistors etc.. You can only squeeze out so much performance from a core unit. Nice to look at though.
On the other hand, upgrading parts can really show you what a core unit is capable of, let it be all it can be. For example, I currently have a Dac based on the TDA1541A single crown dac chip. After upgrading some key resistors, caps and a few other parts it turned into a different beast. Its now the best Dac in my stable and in fact the best I've heard.
