In Reply to: RE: OP Amps, Whats Your Opinion? posted by AudioSoul on June 24, 2015 at 09:48:49
There are a bunch of op-amps that are really considered good. I think that using op-amps is hard to avoid unless the designer is very clever.
There is a phono stage, for instance, that has a discrete MC input and I am wondering whether it will be better than my current phono stage that uses op-amps exclusively, and ones that are not even noteworthy?
I think you have to listen to the gear to decide.

Audio Research uses them in the mute timer circuit. Ironically, that is the only thing that has ever failed with my twenty year old SP9 MKIII.
You can't hardly compare a LM555 digital timer in a standard SOIC package to an analog opamp. I guess you could... if you have no clue about what you're talking about.
Personally, I've never had an opamp fail and I've used a lot of them. OTOH, I've owned a number of high-end preamps that don't use opamps fail.
Regardless, this has nothing to do with the OP's query.

Sorry to hear that. I cannot relate.

Sure it does. Op amps do have their place. :)
