Best semi conc. Audio switch (no rely)

[GnuNielsen]

Hi

To my new preamp project I need a switch to switch between sources CD, tuner, aux etc.

In my fist preamp I used relays, but I would like to try something new this time.

So I am looking for a semiconductor switch/MUX, like 4053 or smilair, with very good sound performance.

Any ideas what to look for?
Thanks in advance

Best regards,
Martin

I designed and use this in my amp, which also incorporates full remote
control.

Better than any mechanical arrangement, and can be placed close to the inputs.

Reminds me of the olden days when i used to modify cd players. Those muting fets would come out like rotten teeth.

This has been good to me for the last year. Very reliable and haven't been able to kill it with wicked input sources:
