I am going to build a new amp... this much is certain. I can build a META for nil since I have many needed parts, but an SDS would cost me much more. Really, if I bias the opamp (OPA637) into Class-A, and run 3 paralleled BUF634's per channel in wide-bandwidth mode (BW connected directly to V-), would the SDS be an upgrade to this? I realize the SDS uses MOSFETs which would have bottomless current gain for headphones, but the 3xBUF634s would be pumping out 750mA max also, so it is overkill as well. Which would be better sounding?
