OP-Amp Rolling

A great feature of the EVGA NU Audio card is the capability for future upgrades and
modification by swapping op-amps, sometimes referred to as 'OP-Amp Rolling'. For this
we have provided two sockets, U613 and U564, as shown on the plain view:

The pre-installed op-amps, AD8056 (U613) and
OP275 (U564), were selected, first and foremost,
to create a lush vivid and immersive soundscape
for gaming and music. Both of these op-amps have
the standard 8 pin dual op-amp layout:

However, the AD8056 op-amp is a very specialized IC and has a maximum operating voltage
of 6V (symmetrical +6V, -6V), which means it can only operate in the 5V environment of the
Line amplifier, which is socket U613.
