Hi reb,
That must be the cut-and-paste TI response.....a number of us got similar/the same answer.
I can't wait to try out the opa827s, but they are backordered to TI. Delivery is expected in early April.
The lt1364 is a good solution in a dual op-amp with, to me, a pleasant "warmth" to its sound. I also forgot about the lt1028 single (a nice little BiPolar)--I've never "heard" them, so I requested a couple pair to try out on the dual adapter boards.
It appears that, like most, the opa211 is greatly effected by all associated circuitry. I've read wildly varying assessments of its sonics. I guess it's not a real "drop-in". The opa1611 seems pretty forgiving in that respect and has a fairly consistant "sound".
Did you find that the opa211 did anything especially wrong, or did it just not "have it", so far as SQ in general?
Any feelings about the old standby Motorola mc34082p touted by many as THE drop-in replacement for the ne5532/jrc4560/lm833 back in the late '80's? Some old-timers (like my age) still swear by them.
