Sounds glorious, quiet as you can imagine but powerful enough to ruin most headphones. Looking to make an ultra low power FM transceiver next.

So devices that have headphone outs normally have small low quality fairly low output impedance amplifiers. Instead of using those you hook the device (ipod, cd player, blu-ray, turntable, ect) to this amp and use that to run the headphones. Needless to say that thing is quite a lot more powerful than the little amp found in an iPod.
