That would be a no.

It's not a question of imagining it - that's very naive.  When people's
medical conditions improve when they take a sugar pill they believe to
be an effective medicine, they are not "imagining it" - they have
actually, measurably, improved.

If you brought people into your shop where they were surrounded with
high-end and expensive gear, told them what they were listening to,
added some details about what you had done to improve the SB+, how
expensive and effective the new parts were, etc. etc., then of course
they would hear a difference.  It would take an unusually strong-minded
person to say, or even think, otherwise.

Try it, just once, blind - it will take you five minutes.  Just connect
an SB and an SB+ to a Benchmark DAC and turn your back while someone
randomly switches from one to the other, and see if you can identify
the difference.  It would be very interesting if you can - it would
prove Benchmark's marketing claims false, among other things.  If you
are so confident there's a difference, you have nothing to lose.
