Will the op amp be changeable or will it be soldered on? looking at the pictures it seems like there isn’t a DIP8 socket as there is on the cMoyBB.

All opamps are soldered to the board (SOIC-8). We’ll be releasing the enclosure as an open design. This means:
1) We can design more products in the same, thin enclosure. If there’s demand for DIP-8 sockets in a thin portable amp, we’ll do it.
2) DIY’ers will finally have access to a thin case designed for portable audio!

Have you finalized which op amp you will be using on the retail version?
If so which one are you going to go with?

Yes, the main opamp is finalized and will be announced with the official release. It’s an expensive chip.

Maybe hes implying OPA627AU?
