Newclassd (Dexa) Discrete Opamps & my EE Minimax DAC Plus

Posted by CKKeung on January 28, 2012 at 02:05:43:
I owned the EE DAC before and am using the new EE DAC Plus now.

I tried OPA627 on U6/U7 & AD8599 on U1/U2 with significant improvement in every aspects.

The Newclassd discrete opamps are even better.
The size fit perfectly in DAC Plus.
The background is blacker, resolution higher, frequency extensions wider yet equally musical.
They KO the tube output despite I am using a very good NOS Valvo 'pinched waist' E80CC.
I will try pulling out the tube soon.

(Give Lars Clausen of Newclassd an email. He's very friendly & probably will give you a discount if you tell him you are referred by Peter of Hong Kong.)
