eBay Amp Well Worth Checking Out

I picked up this homemade amp on ebay a couple weeks ago... was def taking a chance but I wanted just a little extra umpphh coming out of my computer. I use a x-mod exterior soundcard. Saw this on ebay, since it is not a name brander I included the link...

Now that I have spent some time with it, I must say I love it. It drives my Equation 21s very well. I am rediscovering my jazz collection. Now I must admit some (alot) credit must go to the 21s, but all in all a good combo.

Has anyone else checked this one out. Seller was very good too. Which is always worth pointing out.

What op amps should I use ??? I use the single type so I use 2 per amp, except in my Class A amps, which I use a pair of SL6310's which blow them all away in my opinion... Dave
Seems very vague as to what op-amp you'll get .

I admit, its vague- and I am no techie. I just know what sounds good, to me anyway. My only real claim is that it is an inexpensive option for someone looking to get better sound from their home source. The price seems to have gone up too. I did not pay what is posted in that link when I bought mine.

I've picked up an amp with SL6310's and I'm trying to track down the provenance. This might be a link, but (of course) the auction isn't there any more. Does anyone have this guys (Dave?) contact details?
