Re: Philips NE5532AN OP Amp ?

67.41.245.207

If I was considering such a swap myself, instead of worring about the scales and visual presentation, I would simply get a ruler and read the values off at each octave point. If you just tabulate, the figure on a spreadsheet, the NE5532 is going to be at the low end of the THD+N range along with some others.

It would have been nicer to extend the NE5532 data to 20k, but unless there was some outrageous problem, it would probably still be respectable.

I think the problem is that some rather popular pieces that come from the maker with considerable marketing puffery don't look so good on paper. Nonetheless, if you use one of these and like the sound, who's to complain?
