Thanks, Batty.
I return from vacation tomorrow and will order the Yarra boards now that they have been verified to work. There was one small silkscreen typo that I caught on the PSU. Otherwise, all seems good to go.
I'm afraid I would find it hard to leave there.
FYI here is how one commercial headphone amplifier product chooses to arrange their left and right RCA-Cinch jacks on the rear panel. Left on top, right on bottom: Figure 1 below.
Also shown is a preamplifier from Krell, partitioned into two boxes for lower noise, woo-ooo oooh (Figure 2), and finally Nelson Pass's first preamp, the 1974 released Threshold NS10 (Figure 3).

I just swapped out R118 on Melbourne for 1k (5k6 default) and now gain is 30.6dB. Actually a nice setting for my Bluetooth source to drive my MOAMOFO. Can play very nice and loud now. Sounds great.
The removable Melbourne max changing the resistor a snap. Nice ease of use / servicing.

I like right over left.....
Wow. I built my preamp with the right channel over the left. I guess it will build the YARRA the other way so it sounds better.
