The TY-141P used in the Duocast/Simulcast would be a good one.

Well, there goes my excuse for not building one.*
*Yes, I know that you can just jumper it without any impact on the tone. But it looks cool, so I'm not building one without it.

TRIAD TY-250P ...
... and we'll need super-cool project PCBs to go along with it, such as Frank Appleton's Trans-Boost, which IIRC, John Kallas had a hand in tweaking the circuit.
The TY-250P, alas an arachnid, isn't a drop-in replacement for the TY-141P bug — 8-legs vs 6-legs respectively,
BUT the 250P has WWWAAAYYYY-superior frequency response, runs the gamut of human-hearing — so great for Bass, Synths, Vox, anything, etc.
Maybe an ADAPTER-PCB of some kind, if possible to run the 250P in place of the 141P.

I just picked up a couple of these for some more DI boxes and I'm interested to hear if they're "better".

Interested.
The TY-141p may have a worse frequency response on paper, but based on the testing done by some people over at GroupDIY the 141p extends right down to 20hz and up to 20khz without much distortion, as long as you're sensible with the impedance.
One person has used it as the input on every channel of a custom designed mixing console such is their confidence it its performance.

Someone print and frame this.

Yep, that one was already on my list. It was used in the Swiss Things and something else but I can't recall what it was off the top of my head...

Just finished boxing those Edcor. WOW! I only used my cans into a Mackie 1202 for a quick test but I can hear a HUGE difference! Warmer, fuller...all kinds of goodness. I'll try to get a more scientific test and maybe even make a video.

Guess I like Soundwave too, by association that is. He brings my favorite, Ravage, to the party! <3
