Just received a message from Digikey that the OPA2134 in various forms is being obsoleted.
I'm not sure if there will be a new version in the near future, but Digikey is completely out of stock of all forms of the OPA2314 op-amp.
This has long been one of my favourite go-to op-amps.
I think it sounds pretty damn good, and I've used it to improve the sound of various components, most of which came with NE5532 op-amps which are pretty generic jelly beans at this point.
Anyway, I was wondering what good sounding substitutes for the OPA2134 are out there.
What are you guys using these days that doesn't cost ten bucks?

Buy directly from TI. Cheaper and no parasites .
OPA2134 still active : https://www.ti.com/product/OPA2134
Or OPA2132 , still affordable from TI : https://www.ti.com/product/OPA2132?keyMatch=OPA2132&tisearch=search-everything&usecase=GPN-ALT
Honestly , I couldn't tell the difference between OPA132 and OPA627.

And less than half the Iq per channel with the OPA1642. Last batch of 50 I bought was direct less expensively through TI.
Vous pouvez toujours les trouver chez Audiophonics (fr), DIP8, unité = 8,90 €, (je viens de vérifier).
Anyone that pays that much for an OPA2134 needs to have their head checked.
