And... I've swapped out my first op amp, thanks to User00.
I was a bit nervous, but it's easier than expected. I had taken a punt on an LME49720 as recommended by imran27 and by taken a punt I mean bought from eBay, so who knows what I'm listening to.
I've listen to a couple of familiar tracks and was a bit confused at first. It didn't sound great - poss less favourable than the stock one. Definitely different - almost muddy. I was listening using my dt 770 pro 80ohms. I use bass on, and medium gain. Dropping the gain and I'm much happier. I wonder whether this is consistent with your experience of op amp rolling - having to change settings?
Either way, thanks for the info guys, this is proving fun and I'm happy with what I'm hearing. I liked the stock one mind, just wanted to explore!
