Hi,
How are you affixing the opamps to the card. Is this just a hot glue gun?

 

[Razork]

Yes

my opinion is that the ZXR is the best PCIE soundcard...well above the new AE9...
here my quick impression on how both compared:

Another upgrade performed. All smd amplifiers replaced by dip-8. Really incredible sound that is coming out.

Does anyone know what's the difference between the green and the gold caps used in the zxr? Early revision adopted gold ones while new ones adopt green.

Greetings, I have done this mood on my ZXR and it sounds fantastic. I'm looking to get a x7 for a more modular choice and not need a PCI-e devices. Is a similar mod possible on the sound blaster x7?
