What would you suggest as an upgrade to the Op Amp? It would be great to see a comparison! 😎
@Fuzzydufflebag · 1 month ago
Be careful upgrading the op amps to Sparkos or any other models that aren’t the height of the existing 8 pin dip. The cool Vu meter will interfere with and push the Sparkos or whatever cockeyed in the socket. Injustice left the front screws loose to pull the meter forward then you can put just about anything in there. The next limiting factor is thev2 caps on either side of the op amps socket. I used an another 8 pin socket for clearance. I like the Sparkos and a Meanwell 48v 7 amp supply. Very good for the money.

I just pulled out from storage a 90s stereo receiver Denon DRA 325R , I am so blown away how good it is sound.<br>I have a nice collection of stereo systems and I can tell this cheap Denon is impressive. Find one in mint condition and you will see what I am talking about.
