I can't seem to find 1/4 watt resistors, only 1/8 watt. Care to point me in the right direction?

Well said, puppyslug...

Incidentally, for headphone amps, 1/8W is almost always enough. I use solely 1/8Ws (except for the 1meg input resistor which isn't availible in 1/8w) on my META42s- never had a problem. Obviously, for electrostatic amps, things might be a bit different...

Hmm... Kevin specced 1/4W for the resistors in that amp... I'd recommend sticking to 'em since I'm not familiar with the design.
