Success Rolling Opamps in EE Minimax DAC

I'll try to reign in my nearly unbridled enthusiasm for a recent uber-economical tweak, rolling Opamps in the Eastern Electric Minimax DAC.

On encouragement of Chris and Melissa Owens from Clarity Cable I swapped them out (note; this voids the warranty!), with resounding success. A more powerful upgrade per dollar in decades of messing with systems and tweaks does not come to mind.

My brief instructional discussion on this experience appears at Dagogo.com

I too tried the op-amp upgrade you suggested Doug and it sounds quite phenomenal in my (all tube) set up. I still wonder, though, about the new "Custom National Semiconductor op-amps" you refer to in the Audio Blast update of 01/18, which you would move directly to. Can you give us more specifics?
Cheers
