I got two of these superior 4562 DIP dual opamps yesterday.
One drives my cheap BTech SS, the other works in my selfbuilt portable Cmoy/RA1 clone. All the rave about this opamp seems to be more than justified, as it sounds absolutely superb and moreover provides a mentionable soundstage, which was almost nonexisting with both amps before.
However, there seems to be a price to pay - the Cmoy -dead silent with the 2132- hisses with the 4562.
The problem vanishes if I use a 100 ohm resistor in the output, and it also doesn't occur with high ohm fons. But that doesn't help as the amp is simply not loud enough in these cases.
I think about triggering the gain to get enough juice to work with a permanent 100 ohm resistor in the output. But I've no clue which other resistor values have to be changed to achieve this goal.
My Cmoy is designed with the standard RA1 configuration - each channel with a 100K, 120K and 470K resistor.
Thoughts?
