Equally as, but I add psu bypass caps, so your own observations may not be the same.  LME49990 has the edge at soundstaging, however.

Some like them and some do not.  They are just opamps built from discrete components so that can have pros and cons depending on how you look at it.
There are many discrete opamps out there you don't have to pay ultra high prices to test them out.  Check out the Audio GD line-up.

Thanks for the reply Rob. After doing some research, i've seen some people is using them with the miximax dac. Im very tempted to try this upgrade.

I've heard how they sound in Burson's HA-160 amp and i've got to say, its nothing special and ridiculously over priced, I could make a better sounding discrete OP with just 10 US$

Check out some of the Audio-GD discrete products, they are cheap enough to play with without draining your wallet.  If you don't like them you can turn around and sell them without losing too much.

What does the price matter?  If he wins, he gets a couple of them for free.  If he doesn't like them, he knows where he can sell them.  ;D

Hello guys. Currently, i'm thoroughly loving the sound of the AD743JN with my ibasso p3. However.. it sucks too much battery life. Can anyone recommend me something similar sounding that doesn't require so much power? It's lush and full sounding yet maintains a linear treble to bass presentation. At least that's what i hear.. Pairing it with JH5 and an imod/J3.
