    The Opamp thread

    Yes, there is a square solder pad and it is marked as 1. Sorry for this stupid question, but how do I orientate it? Normally I just follow the semi-circular marking. But in this case there is no such marking on the browndog.

    Can anyone tell me how to orientatate the opa AD797BRZ for insertion please? 2 pieces are mounted on one Browdog adaptor, one one top and the other at the bottom. However, the adaptors do not have the semi-circular marking at the edge for me to follow. Thanks.

    I have been looking for SRD 7 pro or mk 2 for a while and 2 came up for sale in audiogon yesterday. Guess what, both have already been sold. It pains me to see that it was so close yet so far.
