I've several different amplifiers that have socketed op-amps, so I've got a collection of op-amps to use in them.

During both trips to the UK, that I was able to make with my parents (2001 & 2011), we visited Baldock, and I took some photos.
The 2001 photos are all in one album, rather than separated into an individual album - https://www.flickr.com/photos/david-r-baldock/sets/72157624129414814/
The 2011 photos are in a separate album - https://www.flickr.com/photos/david-r-baldock/sets/72157627803093251/

We went to the old church there in town, and noticed that there weren't any grave stones with the name Baldock on them.

Great photos, thanks for sharing. The White Horse has changed a bit now.

When I arrived home from my vacation, the Burson V6 Vivid op-amps from (Mass)Drop were in the mail.
So, I've reorganized my main op-amp rolling case, and it's currently got these -
.
Left side = 3x Sparkos SS3602
Right side = 2x Burson V6 Vivid, 2x Burson V6 Classic
.

.
Column 2 = 2x OPA627AU .................................................... Column 2 = 1x AD8066, 1x OPA1688

.
Column 3 = 2x BUF634U ....................................................... Column 3 = 2x AD797BRZ

.
Column 4 = 2x AD828ARZ .................................................... Column 4 = 2x LT1678IS8

.
Column 5 = 2x LM4562NA .................................................... Column 5 = 2x OPA1622

.
Column 6 = 2x Burson V5i-D ................................................. Column 6 = 2x LME49720HA
You are missing NEWClassD opamps. I've heard these are the ultimate. I had a chance to buy some for super cheap but missed the boat. The only issue with these is they are huge and only fit on larger spaces.

I got a new cable in for my Sendy Aiva and AQ Nighthawks. The cable kills it. Best sound from a cable I've had yet. It is a custom cable from ArcticCables.


Wow, I don't even want to know how much that cost. It is too pretty.

A lot less than you would think. It was only $270. This is the decked out version. The 4 wire is $170.

well.. a "bit" more than the $40 or so that is my limit for a cable.

my limit on cables is that they cannot cost more than 50% of the cost of the headphone-IEM.

I don't have a single headphone or IEM that still has the stock cable on it. All aftermarket or customs. @OldDude04 knows a bit about this...
