    I would be interested in trying a couple fed from +/- 12V or +/- 15V.

    Only had audio cct smoothing caps replaced with much higher values so far, and a snubber added over the AC winding. The implementation is pretty good on this player, but I will be looking to try different opamps. Supply is +/-10v.

    DAC/Audio PCB;



    OP opamps - note there is no output cap, the pot is to adjust for 0v offset, so final opamp would need to support this;



    Original layout (before silly-sized smoothing caps );

    Internal of CD63 showing Audio GD discrete op-amps.



    For anyone who is interested other mods are a Trichord Clock 4.2, multiple voltage regulators in place of current limiting resistors (some are DIY low noise), a JLH Ripple eater on the PS, Panny Caps replacing standard PS caps, HDAM modules by-passed and other stuff that I probably can't remember

    The Op-Amps arrived yesterday and I fitted them today. Initial impressions - very good. Will report back in a couple of weeks time.

    I wasn't aware of this thread till today, but I used the V5 modules in my active x-over for my Yamaha NS-1000M speakers.
    Much better than any of the opamps I tried.

    Not yet. How did they know where to ship them?

    I think +/- 15v is the absolute maximum, might be better with +/-12v.

    Check the link to the spec sheet on post #14.

    I found they take about 50 hours to settle in.
