Description
Sparko's Labs has created a family of discrete op amps in an 8 pin DIP compatible package optimized for high performance audio applications. These devices are drop in replacements for many common, yet inferior audio op amps and are uniquely compensated for trouble-free swap out into virtually any circuit. Having a footprint of a mere 0.33 square inches, these devices are one-third the size of any other discrete op amp on the market. Class A biasing and high output current capability coupled with a two pole compensation scheme requiring multiple NPO dielectric capacitors make these discrete op amps impossible to fabricate as a monolithic IC. These devices utilize matched transistor pairs encapsulated within a single device package for the input stage and internal current mirrors, which retains the advantage that monolithics have with device matching.Installing these devices in place of ordinary IC op amps in your audio system will yield vast performance improvements ranging from quieter or "blacker" background due to their low noise performance, and more detailed, crystal clear highs due to their high loop gain and two pole compensation.

If you are willing to write a review and / or take some pictures of these devices in your audio system, I will accept reasonable offers below list price.
