They actually don't have greater bandwidth, they have faster slew rates. Noise is higher than a 5532AN. The AD8599 is an improved replacement with much lower noise and THD. It has a similar bandwidth and therefore is pretty safe as a 5532 drop in. Wideband stuff is hit or miss depending whether the circuit has the required stability components installed and the layout is friendly. I liked the OP275 back in 1989, but there are now much better choices available now. Try them, the same smile when you installed the 275's will appear again!
