Has anyone used a Muse 01 in the BSG ?

Not here. Many of these CMOYs are very good values with good sound.

haven't used that chip but I recently pulled a C4570c chip out if a dead Nikko CD player (or tape player... I can't remember) and I really like the way it is playing in my BSG CMOY.

Yes, he doesn't have them listed up all the time though. He sold some this month, shown in completed listings on ebay: http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_sacat=0&_nkw=biosciencegeek%20cmoy&LH_Complete=1&rt=nc&_trksid=p2045573.m1684.

im interested to buy op-amp from Burson, however im not sure how im gonna install it on my CMOY..im clueless when it comes to audio DIY
 
any help? is it just easy as removing old one with hand and installing new one?!

Just wanted to make a note that I recently bought a pair of MrSpeakers' Mad Dogs on Ebay and I am happy to report that my BSG CMOY powers them very well even on low gain. Granted, I am pretty careful about my listening levels, nevertheless, I was initially worried about how it might handle these relatively needy cans, but hey sound great! No need to look for a new amp, thank goodness.
 
Also, regarding Op-Amp rolling, I would suggest reading this insightful article: http://nwavguy.blogspot.ca/2011/08/op-amps-myths-facts.html
 
It certainly changed the way I see what is actually happening when people say they hear different sound signatures from different amps.
 
update, with a few days of listening now under my belt, I can say the CMoy can power the Mad Dogs no problem, but I feel compared to my O2 it is a little flat. Still pleasant, but just feels like the musicians are now playing after a big night out and they haven't fully recovered.
 
cheers

This is one I had: (18V). Standard one is on Ebay. For other pictures I recommend to ask the seller for some.

Guys, am I the only one noticing some distortion on low impedance headphones? My Aurisonics Rockets definitely do not like this amp.

How low is low? I have only tested cans from 32 ohms and up.

Maybe check with the maker to see if he knows the output impedance of the headphone jack. Maybe it is too high for your HPs.

They are 16 ohm's. Must be too low

take it for what you will, but I know a few threads on here suggest a 1:8 or even a 1:10 ratio for the output jack / headphone impedance levels. This might mean the output jack has an output impedance of 2+?? Maybe ask Sanjay if he will look it over for you. I know he stands by his work. I would certainly reach out to him and get his opinion. He definitely knows them inside and out. Good luck.

danimoca out of curiosity, did you ever figure out your impeadance/ bass distortion issue?
