A thread for Entech fans

Interesting. Anyone ever drop in a CS4390 for the CS4329? They are supposedly pin compatible, but it's deprecated and there's no source for it now.

I'm always skeptical about the opamp, chip or cap mods. Just looking at the credentials of the designers they must've tweaked the design for maximum synergy. I know there are better caps and newer opamp and chips that are technically better, but if it's sacrilegious to swap caps on a vintage Marantz unit, then the same logic might/should apply to the Entech IMHO.

Best to leave it on 24 x 7.

Kramer:have you seen this review?

Currently replacing all the stock cheapy film caps with Wimas. Probably not a huge increase in sound quality, but it will look way cooler.

Hey guys,
 
I know this is an old thread but I have a question. I just bought a nice 203.2 and I would like to put a op amp socket in so I can roll some opamps. My question is which op amp should I purchase that would be compatible with the 203.2 and you guys feel is a sonic improvement over the stock chip?
 
Thanks!
