Tagging ins tedious. Especially when it’s not you who searches but lots of other people, all with their specific ways of describing what they are looking for. And yes, the results are between amusing, annoying and infuriating. The “alcohol”

Can someone explain how that circuit works? They mention it buffers with a gain factor of 0.1, but I don’t understand how the four op-amps play together to eliminate the hiss.

Cool. That's the principle behind why you can stabilize a wobbly table by turning it -- you will find a position where all four legs are on the ground. Didn't know it had a name.
