Yes, thank you. I see those would have worked out.
I ended up ordering NE5532PSR and NE5532APSR. Older stock I believe but match physically in body size to those I have on hand. I think these older ones though still RoHS compliant also have more lead content. Same with the solder on the PCB as it was certainly easy to remove them and clean up.
For the minimal extra cost I should have ordered some of the NE5532DR you suggested to also have on hand. Thanks again!

All of them should work just fine if they are the same package size. They all have pretty much the same performance. The NE5532 is still a great chip, but a lot of people love to hate on it. It will not be the weak ling in the system.
Appreciate your comment. I'm thinking the same way about the NE5532. Lots of discussion about them and opamps in general.
When my Dac first came out a reviewer even questioned it's use of NE5532 in the build. That was 10+ years ago and he still uses the dac in one of his reference systems after all that time. That's why I'm keeping my fingers crossed I can bring my Dac back to life.
