...regarding the TL072 and 074 in the SSL. On Kevs list it say : TL072 (LF353) and TL074 (LF347)...does this mean that the TL072 and LF353 are compatible or basically the same?

353 was the first low-price BiFET. TL072 and kin have essentially the same performance but are a much simpler smaller cheaper layout. I remember when 353 was $2.00, the 072 was under a buck (today they are both too cheap to care). In general, I would consider them 99.9% the same... I don't know of any significant difference in spec. Mostly, you find the 353 in older designs when the 072 was not available or not well known.
