Dear forumers,
this is my very first post. Hi everybody.
I am not very technical and I already ask for help
It is my intention to mod my LynxTwo-B card.
I would like to change the three DACs - CS 4396 - and op-amps - BB2227 - onboard.
For a better D/A my only choice is pin compatible CS43122. It's not very easy to find but I should manage somehow.
For best op-amps, given my inexperience, I asked for help to fellow forumer - Majkel. He kindly suggested OPA228P or, eventually, OPA227P.
Do you agree that it is the best op-amp for me?
What are the sonic properties of such op-amps?
I noticed that there are various types of OPA228.
Would I need the "P" type? Is it the right size?
Anyway, I would need two of these chips for each one I intend to replace. Therefore, I would also need 2to1 adapters.
Looking on eBay, do you think that either one of these would be good?:
DIP8 8 Pin Gold-Plated Socket,For DIP-8 OP-AMP IC, x10 - eBay (item 250490857879 end time Jan-27-10 19:11:09 PST)
Lot of 12x Adapters Two Single to One Dual Op-Amp - eBay (item 370229599635 end time Feb-09-10 06:56:29 PST)
If you can suggest a place where I can order the whole package, it would be great.
I am attaching a photo of the card for your review.
Thanks a lot for all your suggestions.
