[sdiy] njm4560 op amp replacements

[harrybissell]

a note of caution...

The NE5532 is usually NOT a good sub for most 'dual' opamps...
although it will fit the socket, function, and usually cause no damage.

The NE5532 is a power SUCKIN' opamp. It also likes to see a very low
input impedance, or you will get very little of its 'low noise' potential.

I like to see input resistors in the 1K to 10K ohm range... higher than
that
and the 5532 is probably not your best bet.
