Cheers for the 'Welcome', links + recommendations, I have been trying to find another supplier for a while, other IC suggestions are also good.
Just wondered what everyone thinks about the LF351N to be used in the Microphone pre-amp circuit, its a low-cost JFET, it apparently has a distortion figure less than 0.02% as well as being low-noise.
Would like to check on this before I put it in the circuit, just in case anyone has experienced any harshness with this kind of IC in this kind of application.
By the way I am using a socket to be on the safe side.
