Avro Arrow you're a great man!
So it's kind of a DC to AC converter? Class A/B isn't it?

I dont think that the feedback loops around U3 and U4 are set up properly.
What everyone is trying to say about inverted and negative DAC outputs is that the L- output is always the negative of the L+ output (same with R+/R-). If L+ is putting out the sine wave sin(2t), L- is outputting -sin(2t). If at some point in time L+ is outputting 3V, L- is putting out -3V. The same works for current output DACs. If L+ is outputting 1ma, L- is outputting -1ma (or 1ma is flowing into L-).
Now, if you used a 4 channel amp (balanced and I think bridged too?), you amplify L+,L-,R+, and R- separately and the headphones are connected with a 4 pin connector. So if L+ is 3V and L- is -3V out of the DAC and your amplifier has a gain of 2, you get on the output 6V and -6V and when you connect this to your headphones, they see a 12V difference.
All this means that there is no current flowing from the the signals into ground. Instead, the L+ and L- perfectly balance each other so what one is outputting, the other is inputting.
use TPA6120 for this with DC servo?
