OPAMP with the most bass impact?

What 8-DIP opamp (single channel) has the most bass impact in your opinion? Thus far, I've tried the OPA134A, OPA627AP, LME49710NA, and the AD8610. I would have to say the AD8610 seems to have the most bass impact of those listed. I also like it's lively sound. So I'm wondering if there's anything out there that you guys can recommend?

What is this being used in? You could start with the AD843. I might be able to think of something else to try depending on what your application is.

Sorry, I should have mentioned that in my post -- it's being used in an XM5 portable amp (by Practical Devices). It also has two BUF634P chips in it.

I'm considering trying the NE5534. I hear a lot of mixed reviews about it. Which one is the best of the NE5534's out there for my purpose? The SA5534AN or SE5534AN by ONSemi? Is there a major difference with the ANG version versus the AN version?

Even though I can't seem to get it behaving properly in my PPAv2 the AD843 used in every other application has been my favourite single opamp for bass attack, whack and impact.

Paragon: Yup, I said this in the third post -- XM5. I'll be using either the Denon D2000 or the Denon C700 'phones.

Thanks.

I agree about the AD843, it is the "Rock chip" in my little amp. OPA637 is a great chip but the sound is way too soft.....
