Re: AM501 Stuff (op-amp references)
Thanks. You beat me to the second question! I did wanna know if I could "upgrade" knowing that better op-amps exist. I've downloaded the book and will check it out later and added the site to my Audio

Re: First post - Hello and a question
Er, guys, do you even know what you're arguing about? The discussion has degenerated into everyone saying this: for a noob, buying an unknown 7603 and having no access to equipment to properly test

Re: First post - Hello and a question
The input will look like a square wave even with a badly nonlinear vertical channel. The output "square" wave will then typically be much slower than the input one you fed to your system. With

Re: First post - Hello and a question
I was talking about "aligning" audio circuits, e.g. adjusting operating points of various stages, checking response, etc. Not about any sort of RF work. If I wanted to see a nonlinearity of a stage in

Well, if all you care about is *basically working*, then I agree. But then you don't need a 7603 either. A random 7603 with random plugins will *basically* work, but most of the time it doesn't really

Re: AM501 Stuff (op-amp references)
Anything that has got banana jacks on it *may* perform poorly for anything above a few kilohertz due to parasitics, unless you put the feedback path next to the chip. It does have a place to solder
