MUSES 01 | 02 | 03 | BB OPA445BM + D30-mod 

Excellent sounds on Muses03

Enjoy the spaciousness and intimacy of the 01's best. Sounds more holographic to me. They all sound so good. Enjoying your vids and thanks for the posts!!

Very hard choosing between the three Muses versions. I like them all but I would say that the Muses 03 sounds the most accomplished out of the Muses. It seems to grip the bass and hold it better than the 01 and 02, it delivers the power whilst keeping it clean, very nice...and the most expensive especially if you need a dual input which will mean 4 of them which currently is around £140 in the UK, so not exactly 'cheap as chips' here. Which, for the budget buyer like yours truly leaves a shootout between the 01, 02 and the 8920 if we are sticking with Muses.

Lol, eyes are open. I never gave it a thought to use single op amps and double them up. Brilliant, thank you for this. That 445 is mind-blowing on my system. I'm running 2604's right now, and I'm going to try 649's next. Those single to double pins are pricey. I was keeping things on the cheap until you showed up, lol.

BB OPA445BM is the best one

Even on my bad sounding phone it sound excellent. Well done as usual Sir.

what a beautiful sound congrats. I could easily live with any of these .many thank's. I think you've achieved the cleanest sound I've ever heard .where ever the self noise it isn"t in the music

02 appears to be technically ideal, but 03 sounds alive. 445 sounds like a reverb is turned on; a very strange sound

I'm listening on a Denrips Ares 12th, Bakoon Amp-13R and Hifiman Susvara...honestly really difficult to hear any differences between any of these. I went back on forth on different segments and you go a little mad, thinking your mind is playing tricks on you. I only found a tone difference with the horns blaring on second to last section. The muses03 has more more honky tone. Not sure if it is more realistic or not but I enjoyed that honk, which you can't hear the same thing in the Muses01 or Muses02 and its more musically, smooth than what I hear on the BB OPA445BM. So MUSE03 for me, but damn, they are all pretty close.

Hi Ed, thanks for the impressive comparison of the Muses. Is it ok to add a link to this video in our press release about the Muses series ? I am a MarCom employee of Nisshinbo Micro Devices (NJR/JRC + Ricoh Electronic Devices merged together into Nisshinbo Micro Devices)

Love your videos! Will the dual muses03 fit in the case?

My favorite is the MUSES03

Anyone tried the Burson V6 (Classic / Vivid) opamps against the Muse02? I wonder if they perform better in case of dynamic and soundstage?

Bought a few OPA445AP (DIP8 version of the metal can OPA445BM), although they are not burn-in, in my system, they sound better than the Sparkos S3602 and Muses01. Thank you @EdSuwan. Looking forward to auditioning the OPA445BM as well.

This song has original Noise from Tidal, pay attention at the beginning of the song, maybe the noise means more real? which Op.amp has the clearest noise???

Muses03 sounded most musical on my updated highly resolved McIntosh XRT18s, powered by TPA3255 two mono boards with, ironically, OPA1656s. . and yes the sax was a little too edgy.with OPA445BM. 01was not as dynamic, nor detailed as 03. But we are splitting hairs here for most systems, unless the system is highly resolved. I also found 445BM interesting in terms of its Hi-Fiish (i.e.more dynamic yet dryer) rendering. Overall not as smooth and balanced as 03 which I preferred

Thank you for your work! ❤

Once you get to the BB OPA it's game over...you feel like their playing live in front with no clipping or distortion.

Can I get the song's name ? Thank you Muse 1 with good instrument Muse 2 with good vocal Muse 3 is superior one when both instrument and vocal are good.

03 ,445 very good 01 good 02 good and i like dark my choice is 02 It's a shame that the 01 upgrade version is not in 02 like 03

You are clever Man edSuwan. Very nice comparison. Many thanks. Which DAC are you using?

03 super. 03(i/u) +03 (lpf) =mega super.

02 - best one.

easy ! 03　is best op amp !

wow very nice

where can i buy opams adapter ?

Hi Do you have a link for the Muses 03 double soc board?

Все три звучат одинаково !🎧🎧🎧

whats the song name?

Hi, for a circuit which accepts dual circuits how can i use a mono chip like the muse 03? Is there an adapter? Do i need to buy two of them?

So which one would you pick edSuwan?

Hi, thanks for your nice comparisons. In case of couldn’t find any BB opam, which muses do you prefer the best for replacing the D30 original opam?

The muses03 is too superior, lower noise, more separation and more natural

I liked muses 03

Where can you find and how much are the BB OPA445bm? Cheers

Muses 01 n opa445bm bro

Ad843, opa627?

01

есть смысл покупать muses03 если есть BB OPA445BM ??

фуфловый тест! на таком дерьме ниче не выявить, с тем же успехом можно пропердеть и гадать какой звук получился луше. Нада плотные мощные скоростные и т.д. жанры, вот там все сразу понятно
