There is a retailer offering these upgrade OPA2604 chips, which are said to be a great upgrade for the mentioned CD player. Does anyone have experience with this upgrade?

OPA1642 is a better upgrade for you.

Well... try to ask for samples at TI. Or you can look on their site for a vender in your area.
But, sorry, those are SMD chips, dou you really need 8PDIP?

Sorry, i dont really understand too much technical stuff. I can get my brother to work on the boards for me but my knowledge is limited to doing a bit of research and trying a few things out based on other peoples expertise.
