Hi Mario,
LOL! You can try.... Some guys have replaced the ne5534's with 797's, I'm sure it will work but how well? I tried looking for a better alternative for the 5534 but could not find one and gave up! The critical stage in the front end is the preamplifier. The next critical stage is the integrators.
When I go looking for noise, I have the coil connected, connect the receive wire to coil gnd. Any noise seen on the testpoints on the audio board is then internal noise(20mv/div .2s sweep speed). I then short the output of the preamp to gnd to determine if any noise is coming from the preamp. I then do the same for each stage after that up to the low pass filters. You will most likely find that some noise is from the front end the rest from the integrators.
Cheers Mick
