I switched opamps between two channels and the channel that had a thin sound is now full and the channel that had a full sound is now thin. So, hopefully a new opamp will solve the problem.
Thanks to everybody who gave advice!

Thanks to everybody who gave advice! A buddy of mine had 3 op amps die on his within 3 years. Seems like a common occurrence with them. |

While you could replace the cap in the opamp (if it is not surface mount) you still need to remove the opamp to get to it. New opamps are not too expensive if you solder them yourself ($15 or so) and it never hurts to have a backup available

You have to email them a photo of the faulty opamp with the legs chopped off. I may sell mine and get a Vintech 473, as I use my Vintech x73i's more than the API. |
