Well, usually Stan delivers exactly – and very quickly, by the way – what’s been asked from him. If you ordered a Caiman+ with a Gator PCB, I’m pretty sure this is what has been shipped to you.

I use two gatorized Caiman DACs: one in my desktop system, and the other one in the living room. The Caimans replaced the TC-7520 models. I did not compare the output volume by measuring with a reference microphone, but the volume dials on both amplifiers had to be turned a little bit more counter-clockwise when I added the Caiman DACs to the audio chain. At least on my systems, dynamic range and output volume was increased due to the Gator PCBs.
