Which Burson or Dexa did you get?


I have the original Minimax DAC and have read numerous reviews both pro and normal people (the most recent was Enjoy the Musics review of the Minimax DAC plus w/ various opamps both discreet and in chip form). One frustrating thing I've noticed is that nobody ever says which discreets they used! Both Dexa and Burson offer many of the same types (827s, 5534 etc) of opamps but for some reason no one says which ones they got whereas they seem to always say which type of DIP OPAMPS they got. Do the discreet people only offer one kind of opamp for the Minimax or what? Thanks.

...I wonder why they list the other types of opamps? I guess I don't understand why the listed opamp types that work in the Minimax when using the DIP style won't work w/ the discreet opamps?
I had read the E.T.M. review but he listed only the types of opamps when he was experimenting w/ the DIP style. Doug, which types did youtry out?
Yes I've read the Audio Blast anrticles but unless I'm mistaken, the many types you list were only for the integrated DIP style. When you ordered your Dexa and Burson discreet opamps, which ones did you get? I don't mean single or double but the number that designates what type it is like 627 or 827 etc. Thanks.
Sorry I'm being obtuse..don't mean to be. I guess when I saw the various opamp choices like you see at the bottom of this page http://www.newclassd.com/index.php?page=55 I thought one could choose any one of the listed opamps that will work in the Minimax like one can when choosing the integrated DIP style. Thanks.
Yeah, I finally read that part myself. Lol, I may be slow but I mean well! My void has finally been pierced. Thanks.
