Hello everyone, I have a creative zxr and I am wanting to play with the OP AMPs to see if I can get some better sound out of my card. I have very little understanding as to how these work. I know my card has 4 op amps I assume 2 for each channel? I have seen pictures of people putting 2 of one kind in the front 2 op amp slots and then 2 of a different kind in the other 2 slots. I was wondering why that is or how this affects the sound.
I think I am aiming for a either neutral or warmer/lush sound signature. But I am all for buying a couple of different op amps and seeing which ones work best i just dont know how to combine them or tell which op amps have a warmer or neutral tone. So is there guide of some kind on here that gives a basic rundown of the popular op amps and their sound signatures or is it all guess work?
Also what makes are there of OP-AMPS I know of Texas instrument, Bursons, Muse are there others ?
Sorry for so many questions but i would really like to learn about this stuff so any help you could provide would be very much appreciated.
