Lol cheers, I have a couple here and I thought they seemed ok, at least to replace tl072 is some applications.
Haven't tried them. As of yesterday, the OPA1642 has become my new favourite. It's expensive though.. :|
Just replaced the lm4562 with a lme 49860. Initial listening comes with a tighter and deep bass. The rest all seem similar. Will burn in the chip and hear how it goes. Will the forum updated.
No, you adjusted to the "new" sound then your opinion changed.
I've heard all the op-amps mentioned here and their performance/sound will depend upon the application and the surrounding circuitry.
Still these op-amp "rolling" threads are fun to read, though.
LOL.
I just "downgraded" to OPA2132P after many months of using "high end" duals and singles on dual adapters (such as LME49710HA x2 , OPA627 x2, LM6172, etc.)
The result: I absolutely love the OPA2132P. I've owned it for well over a year and never really gave it much of a chance because I had so many other "awesome opamps".
Pffft.

If you like the OPA213x. You'll really like the SparcoLabs discrete. They sound similar but the discrete is more transparent.
The bandwidth is an intrinsic part of its performance and a crucial aspect to consider when choosing a device for a given application. So bandwidth is just one aspect of performance that defines the whole device.
Take a 3 amp fuse and ask 'does the 3 amp rating of the fuse affect its performance' ? Its the same type of question.

What about OPA827AID? I have a few surface mount devices, ii could use with DIP adapters...
A few LME49710/20/40 Ha
A couple LT1115..
A couple of OPA2132.
INA217.(maybe not useful in this case)
Ive been building an active crossover, initially based around ne5532 then LME49740 for all stages, both the buffers and filter stages.
I really want to try a set of LT1028
What suits best...

Will do fine... I use the, slightly faster AD826 as an IV, which sounds much, much better than the 2604 I used before. More detail, good balance between highs and lows and good dynamics.
The LT1028 appears to be on about the same level, but I haven't tried that one since I'm plagued by a tight budget for this hobby...
How it performs compared to the LME's I can't tell either.

Me also, and I have a few OPA827 purely as they were bundled with the last TI samples I got, some time ago. LT1028 looks interesting,but they are costly, as you say.
perhaps an oddball?
What about OP875? Looks reasonable for noise, unusual design (from the little I know). Cheap too, relatively.
