If you don't like this tuning, then there is nothing to say to change it. But I've got to say, to me, it's master work. @Bosk mentioned that Gaea is noticeably less resolving than the true TOTL like Anni and even U12T (a claim which I will evaluate today ). If it is the case, then (1) I can't even imagine how resolving the Anni, the bird, and the jewel are, and (2) the Gaea is likely at the limit of what 1 + 4 topology can do. I can't think of any tuning "tricks" to get more, since Gaea already very revealing with zero mud.
Jewel with Hugo2 and high quality files is the highest resolution I've ever heard and at higher volumes the dynamics really take off and sound great. Can't imagine how much better it'd get with something like Dave or high end desktop tubes, someday when I can justify it I will.
