All these replies were about what I was expecting to get, and just as well. I AM content with my set up for now. I'll probably get better sound from yet again refined technique. My complaints about my quality are more about the fact that my mics or pres or cables or SOMETHING in the chain produces some hiss. I was assuming it was my preamps since the first time I upgraded pres the hiss dramatically decreased. Not to mention my Presonus is in pristine quality, as are all of my cables, mics and power supplies. There isn't that crippling "dirty pan pot" that I can find, so I was once again assuming a better pre would produce slightly better results. Perhaps slightly quieter if I got a pre with more gain.

Thanks for the responses.

EDIT:
I'll also read through that linked article, though I've read it multiple times before. Can't hurt rereading.
