If one was to do this DIY is the required part:
WM8716SEDS - Stereo DAC - 28 pin SSOP Package?
Thanks in advance,

I don't have the spare cash to buy another 7520, so I won't be part of the scrabble for any kind of limited/special edition of Mr.B's latest and greatest. It will be the "Out of Reach" DAC as far as I'm concerned

Dont forget the very good second hand values of Mr B's products.(Thats how I justified it my mind)I don't have the spare cash to buy another 7520, so I won't be part of the scrabble for any kind of limited/special edition of Mr.B's latest and greatest.

Well, I won't be speculating with my 7520. It's in constant use, I'd miss it too much and so it's going nowhere.
If the dear old pound was still worth $2 then may be the TC-7520 would have been built with a wolfson chip and lm4562 op amps as standard. But then only Mr.B can tell us that.

Just fitted my dual OPA627 opamp
Hi Guys,
Just fitted my new brown dogged dual opa627 into the TC7520. First impressions are the sound is rich and full bodied, but not as spine tingley clear as the THS4032. I've learned my lesson with newly fitted opamps though and intend to give it a couple of days to burn in before concluding.
Question for Stan - I assume that the 4562 will be just be fitted in the existing DIL socket in the 7520 Wolf? I'd still like to try out all the opamps I have purchased in the past few months with the Wolfson DAC....

Have you considered getting a Creek amp instead? I read on another thread that someone got an even greater level of improvement from their SB3 through a Creek than via the TC-7520.
