Hi All,
I have some NJM4556 op amps lying around and was wondering if anyone had an available schematic for putting together a headphone amplifier? Sound quality doesn't have to be anything amazing, I just want to put a system together with a pot to control headphone volume from a line output. Otherwise if someone has any advice or would like to steer me in a different direction, I'm all ears. I would just prefer to use what I already have, but of course if I have to buy an op amp or two thats not the biggest issue. I just want a simple design that works well. Thanks in advance!

You will be able to work out component values but if you use 10k and 1k as feedback that will give a few volts of signal for your headphones.

@JoeB83 For sensitive h/p in 16-32 Ohms range, +/-5V supply is better suited, as lower supply voltage results lower thermal dissipation. I had small discussion with NwAvGuy on the same as I was facing thermal problems with SOIP JRC4556.

You're right, I just assumed higher impedance headphones would be used. I kind of forget about them when the lowest impedance IEMs I have are 100 ohms.
