Twenty 5 Twenty SMD opamp is an amazing sounding extreme precision version of the old original 2520 opamp. 

  • Voltage range of +/-12v to +/-25v.
  • Precision 1% matched input transistor diff pair
  • Precision 1% matched second stage transistor diff pair.
  • Improved thermal layout for least DC offset on output.
  • Improved output transistor thermal bias current control.
  • Opamp is open unpotted design for servicing and repairs.
  • Now Gold PCB.

We test the Twenty 5 Twenty at +/-25v into a 50ohm load at extreme overload.

Works perfectly on our BA BAD BAN PCB's or any 2520 type mic pre, EQ & Comps including 2500 comp.

You will definitely love it

I was simply out of words is to how clean and noise free this opamp is. I purchased two of them for my Lola mic pres, they are a perfect fit to this 500 series Lola mic pres. Definitely worth the buy (Thu Feb 08 2024, 08:37 am )

Well made, sound great and quiet.

My API 2500+ Opamps were really noisy and were sounding terrible. I struggled with them for over a year until I noticed that JLM have great reviews of these Opamps on Gearspace. I took the plunge and I’m glad I did. They sound amazing and the noise floor is very low. The build quality is very high. Also, the manual gain on the API 2500+ now gives me the punch and bite that I wanted. Highly recommended! (Sat Nov 12 2022, 16:03 pm )

Still going strong and sounding great

Had these sitting in my 2500 for over a year still going strong and sounding great. Went straight in with no issues when one my potted op amps died. (Fri Apr 22 2022, 13:59 pm )
