I guess it sounds ok, with nothing better to ref it to. I've shied away
from op amps for 2 reasons. I don't have a schematic to follow and
don't know the pinouts on any of the chips I've got here. Number 2, you
need either a prefabbed drilled circuit board or a socket to mount them
in. So when you say looking at the numbers, are you referring to these
specific transistors as being horrible amps, cuz that's my question.
