NE5532.

Posted by fscerri on June 7, 2017 at 22:57:38:
G'day all, perhaps this thread might be better placed in the DIY forum however that forum seems to be mostly valve/tube based and since this is phono well....

Does anybody still have a liking and use for the NE5532 in phono preamps? For a long time I was a fan of the (sound) of the OPA2134, however I have again warmed to the sound and performance of the NE5532 in recent times.

Although it has been around for 'years' it is still very good for phono applications and I actually prefer it to the LM4562. At least in my beloved DIY ESP P06 phono stage, it is a lot quieter than the OPA2134 as well. Any comments or thoughts? Regards, Felix.
