Won't be that much cheaper if at all. I don't know of any other sources.

Adapters for surface mount or DIP8 opamps?

You mean an adapter that takes two single channel units and adapts them to a dual DIP8?

 

[buz]

Exactly using two single DIP8 opamps to convert it to dual DIP8, not surface mounts

 

[leeperry]

still very impressed by 2*LT1363CS8 here...its low end bass control and SS clarity are just amazing, sky is the limit o/

Samuel Groner said that it runs its input stage in class AB.

 

[buz]

Would there be any appreciable difference between the CS (SMD) and CN (DIP) version of the LT1363?

 

[leeperry]

FWIW I didn't like CN...CS gives a shorter signal path, and this is a very high speed opamp.

 

[Mad Max]

So the soic version is better? Or more "ideal?"
What differences did you hear?

Would these http://cgi.ebay.ch/2x-Dual-to-Mono-Opamp-PCB-OPA2604-NE5532-LM358-OPA627-/360249045976?cmd=ViewItem&pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item53e08433d8 be decent or am I better off just getting the real  browndogs with sockets?

 

[Spacehead]

I guess those are fine. But really expensive.

[buz]

Expensive? Cimarron charges 9$ per piece...

 

[Spacehead]

Do your own, 2 $ per piece with 0.50$ sockets. 
 
 

 

[buz]

And 30 bucks for soldering equipment plus time which is always in short supply

 

[Spacehead]

And it would be prettier
 
 
BTW I got BUF634T today! 
 
installed them straight away . Sounds like OPA2132 even when I have AD8599 on front and left. Though OPA2132 on ground with OPA633. So quite a BB amplifier now running.

better clarity?
 
if you're on the cheap, you can use those: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=230408616394
 
I've just ordered ten of them, and I've got 4 of  the same opamps for several chips...so it'll make for a nice shootout against the browndogs

Damn, I should really learn to solder
