What happens to your Shanling M3s? Why do you use a band?

My bad, was too lazy to separate my stack. 3s is strapped to my JDS C421

@kmmbd , great album Patrick is an awesome singer.

I have one of those JDS C421. What chip do you have? I’m using the OPA2227(op-amp).

Hey Red, I never fiddle with any of my gear so it has what it came with. I don't tinker well with tiny stuff, heck the entire length of this thing would be covered with three of my thumbs! Now everyone is going to ask me how/why I have three thumbs

You could order them three ways. The AD8620 was most used. Though I’m pretty sure if you ever open it, it’s written on the chip. I purchased used and they guy I purchased from confirmed the chip on the op amp visually. Cheers!

Was also using the C421-8620 - one of the cleanest portable amps that I've owned. IMO, better than the C5 that JDSLabs released later on.

I heard that was the clearest.

yeah, read a number of reviews that the AD8620 opamp was the cleanest most neutral of the 3. I guess it was just good implementation too by JDSLabs.

IMO the C5 was mediocre. The new Dethonray HA-2 portable amp is something to behold. Compared it to the Vorzamp Duo II and preferred the HA-2 by quite a margin.

Your killing me So I went back to my original order email and mine says it has the 8620 in it. Sounds as if I may have got the best chip for it and I was very close to ordering the red C5 but something else got in the way! However I do know this is one of the cleanest sounding amps I own Of course for a cheapy I just love the Toppings too but not in the class of the JDS IMO
