About Surface mount technology :
Do NOT be fooled by the DIY guy
Can you hear the difference? - no, this is a " smelling the cork" discussion.
Surface Mount, is more reliable, with a reject rate 100 time better than some error prone older components with greater failure rates.
I know, we passed on the surplus transistors that were in the wild, that the backwoods bootlegger bought and now is stuck with. Why did we pass?... because of the error rate of that component. Do you want a failure in the middle of your session?
We use a combination of Thru-hole and surface mount technology for todays best performance and longevity
Having said that , we are offering our older thru-hole model at the same price for those who want them, but with a warranty period of just 90 days. The warranty period of the op amps pictured is an astounding 5 years, and 10 days. Just let us know when you order.
To quote the Big Lebowski "if you sleep with dogs, you will get fleas"
- more on that subject later....
A WORD OF CAUTION:
DO NOT BUY A COUNTER-FIT!!!
THIS IS THE GENUINE ITEM
Thank you for your support
