What kind of output stage and DAC does Yamaha currently use?

I peaked into an RX-V 459 and 559, and from what I could see through the lid, they are using 5 pin ICs. These could be real ICs or transistors with built-in bias diodes. Anybody know?

Also, there was an SSOP28 chip with the BB label, but I couldn't read the model. I assume that was the ADC, as they'd surely use an 8 channel DAC.

Background is that I need a cheap base for a 3-way active XO, and I like to modify my DACs and output stages.
