LME49710 based high end audiophile headphone amplifier

Kelvyn Shaw in the UK sent us a note with a link to his latest DIY Audio Project - a High-End Headphone Amplifier. The headphone amp is made using only premium components and built around the National Semiconductor LME49710 high-performance Hi-Fi operational amplifier which is noted as costing 20 times more than your typical op-amp.

Kelvyn notes that the amplifier "Uses only the finest audiophile quality components that have been carefully selected with no expense spared". Power is supplied through a regulated dual rail power supply using a low noise toroidal transformer. The amplifier is housed in a black anodized aluminum enclosure with a heavy duty clear anodized aluminum front panel. An Alps Blue Velvet potentiometer is used for the volume control.
