Some resistors on the AKSA respond better to changes than others, most notable are the 2 that go to the bases of the output transistors.
Carbon Composite work very well, reportedly wirewound resistors with some inductance do to (welwyn). If you use carbon, use the Riken Ohm, they are as good as the AB without the noise or drift.I agree with the copper PIO, and use them between the driver bases also. IMHO dont worry about the Al. PIO, they are not nearly as good IMHO.
Jensen relabled Angela PIO copper foil avail. for USD 19 from Angela Instruments in the US. they can match them too. They also sell the Riken resistors.
Good cap for C1 and also charge suckout helps. Black gate for C2 and C3 is night and day improvement, try the non polar types. leave C4 stanrdard, or replace with the worst type you can find, poor HF performance is an advantage here.
