Looking for a new Amp or Preamp? If you're after tubes, post over here.

RE: Now...

interesting idea. Could I really hear a difference?

I think it would be $200 for a pair of those discrete op amps. And I will have to check if the breeze audio has socketed those chips. I can't recall.

Come to think of it, those chips are probably counterfeits of counterfeits in there now anyway, so even replacment with authentic 5532s from reputable manufacturer could be an improvement.

The new caps sure seemed to make a difference. I was not expecting the thing to sound any better after replacing the caps, I was just hoping to prevent a blow-up...
