Rotel RCD971: Which Opamps in I/V Converter & Output Stages?

Re: AD827 for RCD-971

Guess the AD827 definitely works fine in mine... next will look into diodes... any recommendations? Or Schottkys 11DQ10 will always be better...?

I agree for AD827, - it was long time first choice for the really best Rotel awarded product such is RA-970BX integrated amp and early versions of preamps.
As for diodes, the pointed Schottkies works very fine, both in digital and analogue domaine of the player.
Expensive though, compared to other with similar specs 8but not sound)

Many Thanks to Ruach for supplying me the 971 circuit diagram. I can send it to any one who needs it. Just drop me your email. Make sure that your mail server can handle about 3 megs of attachment. BTW, full credit goes to Ruach.
