You can simply try different chips and see how you like them. I have fooled a=
round with the same idea but found I often don't like the sound of new op am=
ps in a circuit specifically designed for an old one.

Also the linearity and slew rates of new op amps can be impressively epic bu=
t not so "nice" for audio.

Now I am a little more cynical so I will tend to replace 741's with 741's an=
d 311's with 311's , et C.

The original engineer had all of the limitations of their current componentr=
y in mind with their design.=20
