not to hijack the thread but i'd also like to know which ones have tuners that automatically mute the volume? the OP-PRO doesn't. the OP-50 did.

I don't think that there is an OP-10...
But an OP-11 has No Tuna.

Optima, yes!

Iffy -
I'm getting a bit confused.
Do all the OP preamps have tuners? And your "yes" list is only those that work unplugged?
Sorry for not being able to keep up.
And thanks for tracking everything.

No. The 'Tuner' column indicates whether the preamp has a built-in tuner. The 'Mute' column indicates if the output is muted while in tuner mode.

I've added another tuner, but I'll wait until we have more info prior to reposting the table.

Keep 'em coming...

OK,
Can you add a column that states whether you need to plug in a jack to get the tuner working?

I know the OP-VIP needs to be plugged in. I thought there was one more, but I can't remember which one. I'll asterisk those that do, once I find definitive answers.

As a result of your questions, I started to poke around and noticed an error in the table. I'll correct it when I get more info and repost.
