...they have improved but still it's the end sound of the component that really matters more than what's inside.

How have they improved? Do you know about this stuff?
Our good friend John Curl can talk with you all day long (trust me) about opamps and other electronic gremlins.
For another discussion about them, go to the diyaudio 'lounge'.
:)
...I have talked to my friend John about them before.
Does he use any in Parasound products?
I'll bet he does.
Cost no object - that's a different story.
In most JC designs beyond the basic price-points, an opamp used as a DC servo to mitigate offset. He favors discrete gain stages. Though if you know Curl, you know he actually prefers tubes and always has.
Oh please. If nobody can ever mention a person's name, then everything said here means nothing.
I had lunch with John Hilliard, and he said...
I took lessons with Pierre Thibaud, and he said...
I talked with Bob Ludwig, and he said...
I had drinks with Linda Ronstadt.
I played craps with Madonna in Vegas.
Eschewing "name-dropping" is overrated. Everybody who's not a moron and has been outside their home during their adult life has spent some time with someone who is "famous".
It makes no sense to ridicule/berate someone who mentions someone's name, other than out of petty envy.
:)
...Vendetta Research head-amp I bought from him used j-fets.
And I believe he uses the same in his Blowtorch preamp design.
there's more possibility for innovation - NOT because he prefers the sound of ss.
I can't comment on that, 'cause I know almost nothing about circuit design.Ask me about recording techniques or psychoacoustics, and we can talk. I got that down - more or less.
