Hello everyone, I after the above chip from 1990-95


Does anybody know of a UK distributor likely to have old stock?


Many thanks


Why bother?


DAC chip technology has moved on since then.


**Typical American attitude. If it's broken, chuck it out,
regardless of the inherent quality of the device.


Misses the point that the inherent quality of the TDA1541 is
relatively poor by modern standards.


**Irrelevant. Your claim, here and elsewhere, is that the TDA1541 is
'audibly perfect'. Therefore, given the inherent quality of the device being
repaired, it makes perfect sense to spend a reasonable amount to service it.
The American attitude, as typified by your comments, is to chuck it out,
rather than service it. That, in part, is what is wrong with our society
today.
