Re: The Perfect Hi-Fi Product
NO NO NO that is complete no no for the people this is being designed for, no encapsulated op amps of any sort, reproduce the same circuit using at least four giant valves and "audiophile" capacitors and resistors. Audiophile products with ICs in it
that is a highend snob absolute no no unless you hide them behind the valves somewhere so no one sees them. And of course if you can pretend the circuit is Class A and SE then even better.

Re: The Perfect Hi-Fi Product
I didn't think discrete meant encapsulated ? Was thinking of the Burson jobbies.
