Hello!! I am a x-Meridian 7.1 2g owner, and have made a custom dual To-99 lme49710HA board for its main out.

You can read my rants here.
I modded my turntable with Fine 99.999 headshell wires and clips, and custom 999 silver cored RCA plugs.

So i started recording my vinyl. I have found the 49710HA's to be incredibly, incredibly detailed. The prescience of fading signals reamain perfect. With the silver wires the raw listening off of the vinyl is harsh.
When I play back the recorded file in Diamond Cut Audio, it sounds neutral. When I play it back with Windows Media Player, its sounds warm. When I play it back with Foobar, blah its tinny. I shift the playback to digital 48khtz. Good lord last night I was trying to record Hawkwinds- Warrior
On the Edge of Time, and the part in the Golden Void pt2, where the synth comes screaming in had me jumpin in my seat, dodging death rays, and covering my ears!! Very Very detailed, no dropping or smearing of signal at all. But a lil too harsh.
Any good reccomendations? I have one to 99 board left, and would like to stick to that dual TO-99 as the sound is really incredible.
I have to say that the sound card, played back through a Marantz sr7300, into some infinity speakers with ribbons, have made the Infinitys come alive!! The sr 7300 has hmm looks like 2068's in it.
So I guess I'm looking for a just as detailed opamp, just warmer, with more bass. Still the 49710's do sound insane!!! I will keep them for the recording part, but want to have some opamps that will wow me when I play it back. 49710's are just a tad thin.
Thanks!
Been reading and lme49720ha any warmer? Another review said lme49860.
