Quote: ok thanks a lot! I'm sorry that the lighting harmed your pc...i had a similar accident except for it ruined only my LAN port, the board survived haha

Quote: OK thank you. For I/V i will bay THS4032CD. But for RCA buffer?????? Can i put AD797BR in buffer? My speakers are junk BOSE Companion 2.   I think ASUS will make special edition for xonar essence stx/st too.

 Have anyone tried out MUSES op amps?

Quote: THS4032 is a single channel op amp, I mean there must be two op amps on the adapter (one on the adapter and one under the adapter). Is this right one? http://www.ebay.com/itm/1PCS-TI-THS4032CD-THS4032-ON-DIP-ADAPTER-/221070742557?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item3378d7d41d  ...

I think we need to add a ferrite filter on molex, because analog part takes power from molex.   something like this http://www.overclockers.ua/blogs/users/gallery/462/88/2000_2602ee9a30.jpg

Hello!!!! I want change stock op amps in I/V, but i understand that the quality of sound depends on the brand of the headphones and my ears :) What op amps would be a major change after the stock ones in your opinion?   thanks
