Fender Deluxe Reverb RI
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hello!
What parts must I change if I want to get a really good sound from DRRI? I know, the speaker and OT. What else?

It depends on how much money you wish to spend. At minimum I would change the OT, Speaker and put in a point to point board as well as using good NOS tubes. After that I would change the PT and use a solid wood cab.

Sounds like I must to sell the DRRI and build new amp with Hoffman AB 763 board kit and parts. Where I can find some sound clips of (AB 763 circuit) amps built with that way? I found in Hoffman page but I want to hear more...

Not at all, it's not a bad sounding amp to begin with, it's just a matter of how far you wish to take things. Since I started building amps from scratch I have become critical for my own purposes but whatever anyone else wishes to do is up to their resources (money) and the tone they are after. That's what's great about this forum. You will get all kinds of help from knowledgeable people and opinions from all aspects. There is truly no right and wrong tone, it's just what is right for you.

I would just start with a hand wired board first and see what you have. It makes a huge difference.
Then you can alter others things if you want to.
