I had the built finished version for a. It sounded ok, but I didn't have a real one to compare.
It ended up failing after a week, with one channel dropping out. Later I got the ATH5000 clone in eBay and have been happy with that a few years. Much better in sound as well in many ways. I'd suggest the board level version of that instead.

If I change the caps and opamps, can it's sound better?

I didn't remember what opamps they used, but it looks like they are a part of the gain stage, and some MOSFETs or BJTs are used in the output stage. Probably will make a bit of an improvement if you change the opamps. I can't see too many film caps in the output stage, I would suspect upgrading the electrolytics would have a minor improvement.

The quality of the parts? They are all the most cheap and generic components. I would start with sawpping in some good BB or Linear opamps first.

No, the quality of the schematic itself and if is it possible any decent with this PCB with better components. Sorry, what is BB?
